Implication

This research reviews just transition approaches, emphasizing reparative justice's role in addressing colonial legacies and intersectional injustices.

Key Points

Reparative approaches contrast with mainstream theories by integrating historical legacies of colonialism, and amplifying Indigenous voices.
The proposed 5R framework highlights recognition, representation, redistribution, resurgence, and responsibility in just transitions.
Collaboration with the Tremembé da Barra do Mundaú Indigenous community illustrates the need for relationally reparative approaches.
Understanding these frameworks can enhance environmental and social sciences, moving towards transformative just transition goals.
