Territorial governance of just transition? – A case study of Just Transition Fund (JTF) process in Finland
研究了芬兰在规划欧盟公正转型基金（JTF）过程中，逐步淘汰能源泥炭及其社会经济影响，发现尽管治理能力高，但在实现分配、程序和认知公正方面仍存在挑战，并提出了改进建议。
This study examines Finland’s planning of the EU’s Just Transition Fund (JTF), focusing on phasing out energy peat and its socioeconomic impacts. Despite Finland’s high governance capacity, significant challenges emerged in achieving distributive, procedural and recognitive justice. Through stakeholder interviews and policy analysis, the research highlights gaps in multilevel coordination, stakeholder inclusion and addressing socio-cultural dimensions of transition. The findings stress the need for synchronised policy timelines, clearer communication and place-sensitive approaches that recognise non-monetary place attachments. Recommendations include enhancing participatory governance and aligning national policies and funding with EU frameworks to ensure equitable and inclusive low-carbon transitions.
