Description
The project aspires to bring the voices of excluded/marginalized communities (including Indigenous and grassroots local communities) in Greenland, Lithuania, and Sápmi into the Nordic-Baltic green transition strategy debate.
We will partner with Indigenous and local grassroots communities in Greenland, Lithuania, and Sápmi to understand how their struggles for environmental justice may inform one another and help the Nordic approach to green transition into a holistic understanding of environmental justice informed by community-based and decolonial action.
TRANSJUSTICE aims to bring to the fore historically under-represented voices of local communities in the just transition debate, foregrounding their historically
tried justice practices, facilitating their direct knowledge exchange and building a solid evidence base of transformative environmental justice practices that together can help stir the Nordic-Baltic Green Transitions strategy toward a more community-based and sustainable direction.
