Podcast | The Slovenian Center for Just Transition that is changing Zasavje

How is a former industrial region in Slovenia rethinking its future through sustainability, innovation, and community involvement? In this episode, we meet Martin Šikovec, director of the Zasavje Center for Just Transition, who talks about how the circular economy and strategic partnerships are breathing new life into the region.

In the third episode of the TOP JOBS podcast, part of the activities in implementation of the European project "Career Transition of Opportunities," you will hear:

• What is the circular economy and why is it a central principle in the just transition of Zasavje;
• How industrial heritage is being transformed into potential for sustainable development;
• What are the benefits of cooperation between the administration, business, and the local community;
• Is the just transition coming too late—and what can we learn from this experience.
