Coal regions exchange programme
From 14-16 March, participants of the coal regions exchange programme from Velenje (Slovenia) visited Pljevlja (Montenegro) to learn from each other’s experiences working towards just energy transitions. This visit followed a study trip to Lukavac, Banovići and Živinice, as well as one that brought stakeholders to Western Macedonia. On this occasion, we look back at these three latest exchange visits that took place within the programme. Tailored agendas, meetings with key stakeholders, and, most importantly, strong motivation of hosting and visiting delegations to move just transitions forward have proven to be their recipe for success. Learn more about the visits below and watch the videos to get first-hand impressions.
