Priority 7: Climate justice

We find the best role for PB in a cross-cutting issue of climate justice with a focus on a Just Transition with opportunities for participation in tackling climate change. 

By ‘cross-cutting’ we describe ways in which, for example, climate justice may intersect/weave well together with/through other themes and through PB help create or strengthen conditions for a Just Transition. Engaging people meaningfully in these areas is particularly important given the long term nature of the work and challenges faced.

Indicators of progress includes:

  • we test green participatory budgeting

  • people from marginalised communities take opportunities to participate in decisions around investments in tackling climate change
