Just Transition: A Challenge for Sasol, Africa and Beyond

Shamini Harrington Vice President: Climate Change at Sasol and Presidential Climate Change Commissioner for South Africa in discussion with Uwe Schulte explains what the challenges managing for a Just Transition imply. Moving away from the fossil fuel base requires helping employees to make the transition to new jobs by skills and capability building, working with suppliers to help them to adjust their business model to the renewable energy conditions and more. Shamini explains how Sasol is forging collaborative networks and what benefits they bring in jointly managing the change. Going beyond the company approach she shares the importance of the impact governmental policies have, to create a good base for developing just solutions to the climate challenge.
