Abstract
(en) This report introduces a framework for building eco-social protection in Belgium in response to growing socio-ecological risks stemming from biophysical changes and socio-technical transitions. It is based on an original matrix of socio-ecological risks, which distinguishes between biophysical transformation risks (e.g., floods, pandemics) and socio-technical transition risks (e.g., the social impacts of climate policy). The matrix helps identify social and institutional vulnerabilities and the basic needs under threat. The report advocates for a just transition based on fundamental rights, universal basic services, participatory multi-level governance, and strategic investment in eco-social sectors. Key recommendations include establishing a new social security branch for socio-ecological risks, institutionalizing transition incomes and re-skilling rights, and reinforcing care-oriented, inclusive democratic institutions to meet 21st-century challenges.
