How do you manage a transition to a fundamentally new economic future? This question had been the focus of work at the National Economic and Social Council in the months and weeks before Covid-19.

The Council’s work focused on how to manage the transition associated with climate change and digital automation.  These challenges will endure beyond the current crisis and the Council have identified recommendations which will help Ireland address these and embrace the significant the opportunities.  These are contained in a report, Addressing Employment Vulnerability as Part of a Just Transition in Ireland, which the Council has published today at www.nesc.ie.
