LABOUR INFORMALITY IN THE COAL PRODUCING GEOGRAPHIES IN INDIA: ISSUES AND PERSPECTIVES
0 Comments
This edition focuses on the theme of “Labour Informality in the Coal-Producing Geographies in India: Issues and Perspectives,” emphasizing a people-centric transition. We have curated a range of perspectives from academics and researchers to emphasise the pressing requirement for a human-focused strategy in the wake of transition to sustainable energy.
As we look to a future powered by greener sources of energy, aligning with India’s net-zero goals, the need to reduce our reliance on coal is of utmost signfi cance. This change would, however, have a direct impact on informal labourers who rely on coal for their living and frequently lack alternative employment prospects or means of social security. It is imperative to prioritise the inclusion of coal workers, especially those who are informally engaged, to ensure their degree of vulnerability is minimised. The purpose of this issue is to create a sense of urgency and need for collaborative eff orts that directly tackle the diffi culties experienced by those reliant on the coal economy in varied ways.

DIVERSIFICATION OF ECONOMIC CHOICES IN THE COAL BELT
0 Comments
We are glad to bring out the 3rd Issue of our Just Transition Newsletter – ‘Vichaar-Vimarsh’. This Issue primarily focuses
on alternative livelihoods in coal belts, economic diversification, complexities and opportunities. ‘Vichaar-Vimarsh’
attempts to bring together various thoughts and voices from the academia, practitioners, thought leaders, businesses
and researchers. Apart from conceptual writing and evidence sharing, what is unique here is the local voices and
ground insights that occupies a prominent place and remains embedded in the thought flow. This also brings to
fore the criticality of the ‘people-centered thinking’, inextricably linked to the elements of equality, inclusion and
engagement in the Just Transition discourse

Looking beyond coal through a just transition lens
0 Comments
We are happy to launch the newsletter, Vichaar-Vimarsh that offers an opportunity to articulate varied perspectives on Just Transition, associated dilemmas, and possibilities ahead. This offers a platform to many who share similar objective and aspirations, to draw inspiration and explore the alternative coal transition pathway to build resilience in coal producing belts through collaboration and deepening their engagement. This is also aligned with India’s commitment to the net-zero target and hence coal phase-down/phase-out in due course assumes significance. We hope this newsletter allows all stakeholders to share their thoughts and voices and participate in Just Transition dialogues transparently. As we engage in mirroring the collective thoughts and innovative ideas, we would indeed succeed in creating a conducive climate for adoption of cleaner choices and sustainable local solutions geared towards promoting a fair and inclusive ecosystem.
