ClimateXChange wishes to commission research to inform development of an overarching approach to monitoring and evaluation of a just transition in Scotland that can be nested with the wider framework for monitoring climate change. The research will inform the development of the statutory annual monitoring framework for the Climate Change Plan (CCP) , the development of the next Climate Change Plan, sector-level and regional Just Transition Plans, the links to the Scottish Climate Change Adaptation Programme (SCCAP) ,and wider just transition policy work.
