contents Green jobs assessment model Ghana: the social and employment impacts of Ghana's climate and green energy policies Kirsten Wiebe (Author) Fabian Aponte (Author) Moana Simas (Author) Mareh Harsdorff (Author) Gideon Mankralo (Author) Simon Bawakyillenuo (Author) Richard Kwabena Nkrumah (Author) In a developing country context such as Ghana, the prime goal of government policy is to foster broad based economic and social development. However, as Climate Change poses an ever increasing threat to economic and social development, climate and green policy is becoming part of the development objectives. In fact, climate and green policy may even fast track economic and social development and employment creation, while reducing the emission intensity of economic growth.This study sets out to ascertain the social and employment impacts of Ghana's climate and green policies captured in the updated National Determined Contributions and the National Energy Transition Framework. Compared to a business-as-usual growth scenario, an alternative development path - in which climate and green policies are implemented - is analysed. The alternative climate and green policy scenario demonstrate positive development impacts in terms of economic growth and employment creation while GHG emissions are reduced. It turns out that the climate and green policies are a win-win for social and economic development. ILO publication.report
