Economic Diversification Strategy for Antofagasta with a Focus on Mejillones
This case study was developed as part of the Innovation Regions for a Just Energy Transition (IKI JET) project and its efforts to support coal-dependent regions in the Global South as they diversify their economies and move towards green and inclusive growth.
The study applies the tools of the digital handbook for the development of economic diversification strategies in coal regions to the case of the Antofagasta region in Chile, with a special focus on the district of Mejillones. It combines analytical methodologies with the participation of local actors, generating inputs for the formulation of an economic diversification strategy.
By examining the economic, social and environmental conditions of the region, the study aims to identify sectors and products with growth potential and co-create strategic objectives with relevant stakeholders.
