Overview

Commissioned by the European Commission, this project creates a comprehensive transitions framework that guides member states through the complex process of implementing the Green Deal at national and regional levels.

Approach

Drawing on transition management theory and multi-level governance analysis, we designed an adaptive framework that accounts for the diverse political, economic, and social contexts across EU member states. The framework integrates stakeholder engagement, scenario planning, and pathway analysis.

Impact

  • Framework adopted as a reference tool by DG Environment
  • Piloted in 4 member states with diverse transition challenges
  • Published as an EU policy brief with practical implementation guidance
