As Europe accelerates its green and digital transformations—commonly known as the "twin transition"—the role of workers and social partners becomes more critical than ever. The TWINING – Supporting Just Twin Transition of European Industries project is at the forefront of this movement, ensuring that the voices of workers are heard and their rights protected throughout this fundamental industrial shift.
Bringing together partners from Croatia, Poland, Slovakia, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Spain, and Romania, TWINING is funded under the European Commission's initiative to ensure a fair and inclusive transition. These diverse regions reflect the wide-ranging challenges and opportunities presented by the twin transition across Europe.
At the heart of the project is a robust commitment to social dialogue. Through a comprehensive requirements analysis, TWINING partners have identified key barriers to effective worker participation in shaping green and digital changes within industries. From gaps in training and digital literacy to challenges in policy engagement and workplace transformation, the project sheds light on what is needed for an equitable transition.
TWINING seeks to empower workers and guarantee that no one is left behind by creating useful tools, encouraging discussion, and advocating for policy changes. In addition to addressing current issues, the initiative lays the groundwork for a comprehensive, long-term transition plan. TWINING urges European policymakers, businesses, and social partners to work together to create equitable, resilient, and future-ready workplaces as industries change. For a twin transition to be successful, inclusivity is equally as important as innovation.
