‘The Jean Monnet CoE for a Just Transitions from Fossil Fuels aims to discuss and promote,through the involvement of different actors, possible pathways of fair and peaceful transition strategies of phasing out, following the principles of climate justice The Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence on Just Fossil Fuel Transitions (JFFTs) aspires to hold up the EU climate actions and measures to reach the

carbon neutrality through a just and equity socio-economic and energery transition path. Moreover, the Centre will spread the global initiative of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty (FFNPT), already endorsed by the European Parliament and focus on accelerating the non-proliferation, global disarmament and peaceful transition from fossil fuels. The general objectives of the JFFTs are:

1) Strengthen the knowledge about the Just Fossil Fuel Transition supporting EU policymaking within Europe and worldwide;

2) Based on the 4 priorities defined by the Action for Climate Empowerment (ACE) Plan, foster dialogue as hub between academic world, policy makers, organizations and movements of civil societies in the development of possible phase out strategies or plans from fossil fuels, integrating the social virtuous practices within decision-making processes;

3) Disseminate and Divulgate scientific information beyond academia and specialized audiences, to reach out to a wider public, bringing the EU closer to the people, promoting public diplomacy, EU values, and make visible the commitments of European Union on climate action and policies, social cohesion and a constructive cooperation in order to support international societal changes in the path of a fair and peaceful transition from fossil fuels.

Il Centro di Eccellenza Jean Monnet sulla Giusta Transizione dai Combustibili Fossili mira a sostenere le azioni e le misure climatiche dell'UE per raggiungere la neutralità carbonica attraverso un percorso di transizione socio-economica ed energetica giusto ed equo. Inoltre, il Centro promuoverà l'iniziativa globale del Trattato di Non-Proliferazione dei Combustibili Fossili (FFNPT), già approvato dal Parlamento Europeo, concentrandosi sull'accelerazione della non-proliferazione, del disarmo globale e della transizione pacifica dai combustibili fossili. Gli obiettivi generali del JFFTs sono:

1) Rafforzare la conoscenza sulla transizione giusta dai combustibili fossili, supportando le politiche dell'UE in Europa e nel mondo;

2) Basandosi sulle 4 priorità definite dal Piano Action for Climate Empowerment (ACE), promuovere il dialogo come punto d'incontro tra mondo accademico, decisori politici, organizzazioni e movimenti della società civile per sviluppare strategie o piani di uscita dai combustibili fossili, integrando pratiche sociali virtuose nei processi decisionali;

3) Diffondere e divulgare informazioni scientifiche oltre il contesto accademico e i pubblici specializzati, per raggiungere un pubblico più ampio, avvicinando l'UE ai cittadini, promuovendo la diplomazia pubblica, i valori europei e rendendo visibili gli impegni dell'Unione Europea in tema di azione climatica, coesione sociale e cooperazione costruttiva, al fine di sostenere i cambiamenti sociali internazionali verso una transizione equa e pacifica dai combustibili fossili.

The new Banking on Climate Chaos 2026 is now available!

Download and Read the Report: https://www.bankingonclimatechaos.org/?bank=JPMorgan%20Chase -panel

🔎This investigation is building on 17 years of research and analysis, this year’s report continues to expose the world’s biggest banks and financial centers fueling climate chaos, and equips movements with the facts needed to drive urgent change.

⏰ Since the Paris Agreeement (2015), top banks financed almost
$9 trillion in oil, gas and coal operations: an unfathomable amount of money that would have made our global energy system more affordable, more resilient, more secure, and more climate-proof today.

📈 Only in 2025, the world’s 65 largest banks committed $906 billion (+8% from 2024) to fossil fuel companies. Financing for companies actively expanding fossil fuels surged 27% to $508 billion in 2025.

💰The "Dirty Dozen" banks now provide more than a third of global bank fossil fuel finance and are concentrating this financing in fewer, more leveraged fossil fuel borrowers.

is underway, but civil society participation is being constrained through reduced press access and persistent barriers to attendance, particularly for representatives from the Global South.

When these spaces shrink, it is not only NGOs that are excluded. Transparency, accountability, and diverse voices are also diminished.

This is a vital window to monitor the technical negotiations and work programmes implemented that shape future climate decisions.

The participation of civil society must remain at the heart of the UN climate process.

Climate activists and members of the press are facing unprecedented barriers to one of the most important environmental conferences of the year.

"The world must treat it as the urgent warning it is"
" The time for preparedness, early warning systems, and rapid climate action is now."

These warnings from UN Secretary-General António Guterres highlight the seriousness of the moment.

The WMO estimates an 80% chance that El Niño will emerge between June and August 2026 and a 90% chance that it will persist through November. Forecasts indicate it could become a moderate to strong event.

Climate change does not cause El Niño, but it intensifies its effects, turning heatwaves, droughts, and floods into increasingly destructive disasters.

This report warns that 2026–2035 is likely to be the most critical decade ever recorded for climate extremes and record-breaking impacts:

• It is very likely that global mean near-surface temperature will temporarily exceed 1.5°C above the 1850–1900 average for at least one year between 2026 and 2030.

• Predictions indicate that annual global near-surface temperatures will range between 1.3°C and 1.9°C above pre-industrial levels.

Today in Santa Marta, the climate multitude has moved from theory to actions. The day began early this morning with a direct action led by Colombian and international activists, who blocked the port operated by Drummond Company, one of the multinational’s key hubs for coal exports since the 1980s. ù

By the afternoon, the focus shifted to collective mobilisation, as more than 2,000 people took to the streets in a March for a Fossil Free Future. Moving through the city with music, dance, and vibrant colours, participants transformed Santa Marta into a living expression of the ideas and demands developed during the previous days of workshops, bringing them out of meeting spaces and into the public sphere. The event served to raise awareness of and support the Assembly of the People, a closed institutional forum in which the Colombian government received 250 representatives from seven sectors of civil society

In the spirit of promoting dialogue between the academic world, society and policy makers the Jean Monnet Centre of Excellence on Just Fossil Fuel Transition today met initiatives of society, indigenous groups, scientific community, trade unions and representatives of parliaments all together committed to a just fossil fuel transition.

Closed yesterday the Academic Pre- Conference, it is time of the People’s Summit. Solidarity, Articulation, Territories and Communities, these have been the guiding threads running through the many spaces and encounters in Santa Marta over the past days. Yet if one word defines this third day, it is “convergence.”

With the People’s Summit for a Fossil Free Future reaching its culmination, following two days of regional and sectoral meetings, the People’s Declaration for a Rapid, Equitable, and just transtion for a Fossil-Free Future was finally presented. This outcome is the result of a process that began months ago.

A series of events and discussions then unfolded throughout the day, leading to the central plenary session, where the People’s Declaration was presented and collectively adopted. This moment captured the spirit of a broad and diverse climate movement, advancing along inclusive, plural, anti-capitalist, and anti-imperialist pathways, and grounded in a bottom-up process of collective construction.

Read the press relase of Declaration: https://fossilfreerising.org/declaration-press-release

With this milestone reached, the atmosphere has shifted from deliberation to celebration and mobilisation. The streets in the night become the space of expression, with music and dance marking this historic moment at the “Baile en la Calle” event.
