Subject: European Fair Transition Observatory-invitation to participate in

stakeholder consultation

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

The Directorate-General for Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion (DG EMPL) of the

European Commission is working to set up the European Fair Transition Observatory, a

flagship initiative under the Clean Industrial Deal.

The project aims to strengthen the evidence base, support policy monitoring, and foster

transparent dialogue among stakeholders on fair transition and competitiveness. One of the

main goals of the Observatory is to improve availability and granularity of the data and

identify knowledge and data gaps.

The project is implemented by a consortium led by Prognos and ICF who are currently

carrying out extensive policy mapping and data collection activities. To support this

process, inputs from stakeholders from EU, national, and local levels are essential.

As part of these activities, the consortium is conducting stakeholder consultations to gather

knowledge and information on policies promoting a fair transition, identify best practices,

and identify knowledge and data gaps. Insights from these consultations will help

strengthen the knowledge and the evidence base on employment developments, job

quality, and the social and distributional impacts of the transition.

Policy mapping is currently in progress, and inputs from stakeholders would help verify

preliminary findings, identify additional policy measures, relevant sources, and data.

We would be grateful if you could support the consortium’s work by sharing information

on relevant policies and available data, including access to datasets where feasible, and/or

by participating in interviews or consultation activities.

Should you need any clarification regarding this project, please do not hesitate to contact
