During the two days of the Green Dealings final workshop and conference in Geneva, researchers from different social science disciplines and at various career stages were invited to present their ongoing research on aspects of the lithium-ion battery transition. In the public part of the event, Green Dealings researchers presented findings of the project, and reflected collectively on how (European) normative perceptions of a “just“ and “green“ transition are shaping international Lithium-ion battery supply chains, with important implications globally, particularly in the global South where minerals are typically sourced. A panel of distinguished experts were invited to comment and debate the opportunities and challenges of due diligence policies.
