Building a Green and Just Transition with Latin America and the Caribbean
The consequences of the interrelated triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution transcend borders and extend beyond the capacity of any one nation to solve, calling for immediate collective action.
Euroclima, as part of the Global Gateway strategy, builds partnerships between the European Union (EU) and the Latin America and Caribbean regions (LAC) to drive the green and just transition. Through bilateral dialogues and regional engagement, the programme works together with the 33 partner countries of the region and relevant regional organisations to identify priorities that translate into concrete actions, fostering long-term environmental and climate resilience.
By creating the right conditions and supporting key initiatives in priority sectors, the EU and the LAC countries are building a strong foundation for a sustainable transition. They also support mobilising climate and green financing to address urgent environmental challenges.
Euroclima plays a key role in supporting partner countries in creating enabling conditions for attracting investments. This includes those offered by the Global Gateway Investment Agenda (GGIA) and the EU-CELAC cooperation, which contribute to sustainable and just transitions promoting resilience, carbon neutrality, and inclusive prosperity.
