Voices From the Project
Professor Celine Tan
Professor of International Economic Law, University of Warwick
"At Warwick Law School and through the GLOBE Centre, we see the JETP project as a vital opportunity to reimagine the role of international law in driving equitable climate finance. It's not just research—it's about reshaping global climate governance from the ground up."
Dr Anil Yilmaz Vastardis
Senior Lecturer, Essex Law School
"At Essex, we’re committed to human rights in all forms. This project allows us to connect business and investment law with real-world justice issues—especially around green transitions—showing that equity must be at the heart of climate finance."
Shafic Osman
PhD Candidate, LSE Law School
"At LSE, we study power structures behind global finance. The JETP framework reveals how sovereignty, debt, and climate intersect—and it's an exciting frontier for research that challenges colonial legacies in economic governance."
Swasha Fernando
Attorney-at-Law, Colombo Law Alliance
"For legal professionals in Sri Lanka, the JETP project highlights how domestic legal tools can be aligned with global climate obligations. It’s a rare chance to bridge legal systems, development needs, and environmental imperatives."
Jason Adams
Data Visualisation Specialist, University of Warwick
"This project pushes the boundaries of data storytelling. At Warwick, we believe in making complex systems accessible, and the JETP dashboard does just that—putting actionable insights into the hands of decision-makers and civil society alike."
Dr Gamze Erdem Türkelli
Associate Research Professor, University of Antwerp
"At the Law and Development Research Group in Antwerp, JETP is more than an academic endeavour—it’s a platform to challenge entrenched inequities in global finance and promote legally accountable, people-centred transitions."
Arınç Onat Kılıç
PhD Candidate, University of Antwerp
"Through this project, we can bring academic rigour to the political and legal evaluation of climate finance tools like blue bonds. The University of Antwerp supports our work in making environmental governance more equitable and transparent."
Dr Basani Baloyi
Co-Programme Director, IEJ, South Africa
"At the Institute for Economic Justice, we approach JETP with a critical lens. Our role is to ensure South Africa’s transition is not only green, but just—anchored in community needs, feminist economics, and alternative development models."
Bhima Yudhistira Adhinegar
Executive Director, CELIOS, Indonesia
"From the CELIOS perspective, JETP represents a moment to redefine development financing. We’re working to ensure Indonesia’s energy transition isn’t driven by foreign interests, but by a clear and inclusive national agenda."
Joan Stott
Independent Consultant, Africa
"JETP is a mirror held up to Africa’s political economy. It shows how development finance needs to be more accountable, transparent, and locally responsive—something we often advocate for in our consultancy work."
Galau D Muhammad
Fiscal Justice Researcher, CELIOS, Indonesia
"JETP allows us at CELIOS to connect fiscal justice with environmental justice. We’re not just talking about budgets—we’re talking about rights, equity, and the future of Indonesia’s people and ecosystems."
Goh Chien Yen
Legal Advisor, Third World Network (TWN)
"At TWN, we see JETP as a live test case for whether climate finance can truly serve the Global South. It’s a critical space to advocate for developing country priorities within global economic governance."
Vicente Paolo Yu
Senior Legal Advisor, TWN & UNRISD
"This project resonates with our work at UNRISD and TWN. It’s an urgent intervention in the global climate finance architecture—and a reminder that justice must be more than a slogan in the transition narrative."
Dr Farwa Sial
Research Associate, SOAS University of London
"At SOAS, where decolonising economics is central, JETP gives us a lens to interrogate how power and capital flow in climate finance. It’s about rethinking whose interests are served in ‘green’ development."
