Duties and Responsibilities

The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) is the leading global environmental authority that sets the global environmental agenda, promotes the coherent implementation of the environmental dimension of sustainable development within the United Nations system and serves as an authoritative advocate for the global environment. The overall objective of the UNEP’s Economy Division is to encourage decision makers in government, local authorities and industry to develop and adopt policies, strategies and practices and technologies that promote sustainable patterns of consumption and production, make efficient use of natural resources, ensure safe management of chemicals and contribute to making trade and environment policies mutually supportive. It promotes the development, use and transfer of policies, technologies, economic instruments, managerial practices and other tools that assist in environmentally sound decision making and the building of corresponding activities. The United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI) is the strategic partnership between the United Nations and over 450 banks, insurers and investors. For over 28 years UNEP FI has been shaping and driving the international sustainable finance agenda, setting global standards and growing a global network of leading financial institutions. Through its work-streams and regional activities, peer learning, methodology development, training and research, UNEP FI promotes sustainable finance and helps the financial industry align with and contribute to the Paris Agreement and Sustainable Development Goals. UNEP FI is committed to supporting its members and the broader financial industry in navigating the complexities of Just Transition. This involves developing tools, guidance, and frameworks that help financial institutions to identify and seize Just Transition opportunities, mitigate associated risks, and contribute to an equitable climate action agenda. In 2023, UNEP FI, together with ILO, launched a new project to strengthen the banking and insurance industry’s role in supporting a just transition. The project’s focused on implications of a just transition for the banking and insurance sector and establish guidelines that provide a practical roadmap for an inclusive and equitable climate financing for mitigation, adaptation, and resilience that aligns with societal goals and the SDGs. This report Just Transition Finance: Pathways for Banking and Insurance serves as a guide for banks and insurance companies on the role of banking and underwriting activities in promoting a just transition to low carbon, climate-resilient economies. It details crucial elements, emerging practices and examples, helping banks and insurers to become enablers of a just and inclusive transition. Moving from this report, UNEP FI together with relevant partners wants to pilot this report, test financing approaches that could be or are being used by Financial Institutions to support a just transition, and support just transition strategies tailored to the unique context of the different regions, sectors, and the affected populations. UNEP FI requires a social specialist to support the implementation of UNEP FI’s social and human rights strategy, mainly focusing on the just transition in the LAC region.
