- description:
- The language and terminology used in green jobs discourse needs careful consideration. Although the green jobs definition officially espoused by this project is the generic ILO/UNEP definition, some stakeholders considered it to exclude some actors who in fact have huge potential to contribute to creating a low-carbon economy. However, the project implementers were careful to focus on the specific economic sectors which had been identified under the ILO-Australian Government Partnership Agreement and which, by definition, excluded some important partners for promoting a green economy. Some of these comments were more related to promoting a green economy while the main focus of the project was promoting enabling conditions for jobs (and green jobs) under the shift to a green economy. This discussion suggests a need for further awareness-raising and explanation of the role that all sectors and different partners can have in promoting a low-carbon, environmentally friendly economy and most importantly for ILO constituents, creating green jobs for men and women .
