Toolkit
The BOLSTER Toolkit presents governance models, policy recommendations, and practical guidelines to foster a just transition. The practical tools offered here have been tested during the BOLSTER project. The policy recommendations and guidelines were developed through our research and extensive discussions with local community members and stakeholders in the target and study regions.
We hope these tools, along with the policy and governance guidelines, will be useful for public authorities, civic organizations, industries, and researchers.
