FITTER-EU: Transforming Twin Transition Policies for a Just Society
The FITTER-EU project ensures that Europe's twin transitions—digital and green—are inclusive and equitable. We provide a platform for policymakers to predict and mitigate negative impacts on vulnerable groups sharpening the inequality. Our ecosystem simulates scenarios and offers practical mitigation measures and best practices.

Engaging with key stakeholders, including policymakers, civil society organizations, and business representatives, ensures broad support and effective implementation of policies. By supporting this project, you are helping to build a future where social justice is at the heart of Europe's transformation. Our efforts aim to drive a more inclusive and sustainable transition, fostering growth and equality across the continent. Together, we strive to create a more just and equitable Europe, ensuring that progress benefits all members of society.
