Transformation in the Lausitz: An Opportunity!

The transformation triggered by the phase-out of coal in Lausitz calls for new approaches. Through the Just Transition Fund (JTF), the EU is providing support in Saxony—particularly to businesses, but also to research and vocational education. The impact of this funding in the Lausitz region of Saxony is now to be assessed for the first time and discussed in the context of structural change. To this end, the Saxon State Ministry of Infrastructure and Regional Development cordially invites you to this event.

Transformation in the Lausitz: An Opportunity!

The Just Transition Fund — European Support for Businesses, Research, and Vocational Education Amid Change

The event provides a practical overview of the JTF’s regional successes and explains what structural change—particularly in terms of the economy and science—means in concrete terms for the Saxon Lausitz region. It also offers opportunities for exchange, discussion, and networking. In addition to stakeholders from politics, business, research, and vocational education, the advisory team from the Sächsische Aufbaubank will also be available for discussions.
