Encouraging entrepreneurship and job creation is a key element of the UNʻs Sustainable Development Goals. The fast-growing green technology sector offers significant opportunities to provide high-value added jobs, particularly for innovative small- and medium-sized enterprises. The Transatlantic Climate Alliance supports policies to create productive, decent employment opportunities in sustainable industries — specifically, opportunities that offer equal pay for work of equal value for all women, men, young people, and persons with disabilities. In addition, we support equal access to affordable and quality technical, vocational, and university education.
