Technical webinar on the Just Transition Fund (JTF)

In the framework of the technical seminars to prepare managing authorities for the next MFF, the European Commission organised a technical webinar on the programming of the Just Transition Fund (JTF).

The key objective of the webinar was to update Member States about the outcome of the inter-institutional negotiations on the JTF regulation and legal provisions related to the JTF in the Common Provisions Regulation. The event also featured the practical aspects of the JTF programming such as the preparation of the territorial just transition plan and their assessment by the Commission.
