Territorial Just Transition Plans (TJTPs) support a range of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for economic growth while supporting the transition to carbon neutrality. - Meso-level organizations underscore the need for supportive interventions to provide skills across their regions. - Marginalized communities share these goals but prioritize improvements in their communities and opportunities for their direct engagement through more inclusive decision-making. - Engaging with meso- and micro-levels supports a contextually relevant framing of just transitions within the SDG framework. - The priorities of marginalized communities complement the objectives found within TJTPs but were not adequately captured through the TJTP participatory processes. - Place-based and demand-driven approaches could be helpful for better integrating and addressing their needs.
