JTC-Dialog “Industrial Culture and Mining Heritage”
Industriekultur und Bergbauerbe im Mitteldeutschen Revier stehen aktuell vor vielfältigen Herausforderungen und Entwicklungschancen. Eine stärkere Vernetzung zwischen Standorten und Akteur*innen sowie gemeinsame Strategien und mehr Sichtbarkeit bieten großes Potenzial für die Weiterentwicklung der Industriekulturregion. Der Dialog möchte Raum bieten, um diese Themen gemeinsam zu diskutieren, Perspektiven auszutauschen und Ansätze für stärkere Kooperationen im Strukturwandel zu entwickeln.

Science Night 2026
On July 3, 2026, it will be that time again: Halle will host the Long Science Night. And the JTC will be there for the second time!
About us
The Just Transition Center (JTC) deals with questions of the day after tomorrow for a just, sustainable and climate-neutral transition.
Our approach is a two-way transfer between science, society, and business, in which scientific findings are translated into applied innovations, and practical experiences are examined in research.

Revierscouts
Four Revier Scouts are out and about in the districts of southern Saxony-Anhalt to recruit stakeholders for collaboration with the JTC, report on our successes and find suitable locations for spin-offs. They are people “from here”, know their way around and have excellent networks.

JTC_Oak: Open academic Network
User manual for map and visualisation
This open-source map illustrates JTC research: pillars, teams and individual researchers, members of the JTC Open Academic Network, as well as a database of researchers working on the topic of ‘Just Transition’ worldwide.
Use the menu on the left-hand side of the screen to explore the map’s various features. You can also use your trackpad
Each JTC area of the Central German Mining Area is colour-coded, and small dots represent various forms of energy infrastructure, with data sourced from OpenStreetMap.
Every marker on the map is interactive and opens its own pop-up menu.
In the menu of the data browser, you can browse, highlight or toggle different layers on and off, or use the search function in the ‘Filter’ menu. Under the name and description of each researcher, you will find profiles categorised by field of expertise, discipline, keywords and research location. You can retrieve these results via the search bar or by ticking the relevant checkboxes in the menu. We have reduced the number of keywords to improve our search function and promote interdisciplinary dialogue.
If you spot any errors, wish to make changes to your data, or would like to suggest further names for the network, please contact network@jtc.uni-halle.deEach.
Each researcher has their own profile with a photo, description, field of expertise, discipline and keywords.
The “Open Scholar Index” is displayed in blue-green. This is an open database of researchers whom we have identified whilst researching topics in the field of just transition. Please note that this function must be enabled in the data browser menu, as it is disabled by default.
The data on just transition regions was provided by the European Commission. Please note that this feature must also be enabled, as it is disabled by default.
JTC_Oak: Map
The map is designed to facilitate contact between academic researchers and to reflect the wide variety of topics covered by research into just transition.
JTC_Oak: Visualisation
The visualisation of the social network shows the connections between the participating academic researchers, the structures within which they operate, and the research topics.
