Great opinion piece by ENERGIA - International Network on Gender and Sustainable Energy & The Shine Collab ⭐ A gender-just energy transition: Why it matters and how to achieve it Power to the people was the theme of a June 25 webinar sponsored by the SHINECollab, whose goal is scaling women-led, community-driven renewable energy solutions for a gender just energy transition. What is a gender-just energy transition, and why does it matter? Speakers debated the unjust nature of the existing energy system, and advocated for a transformational and decentralized approach to the energy transition, and to extractive industries generally, that would advance community-driven solutions. ENERGIA put forward five key elements of a gender-just transition in its presentation, linking SDG 7 on sustainable energy, and SDG 5 on gender equality: Ending energy poverty by targeting women more intentionally Gender-smart investment and financing for women's businesses  Equal opportunities for women's career advancement An enabling energy policy and market environment An accountability framework Read the full opinion piece here - https://lnkd.in/e9CcG3vM

Ensuring clean and affordable energy for everyone - SDG 7 - is essential for achieving gender equality and vice versa. Billions of women around the world still lack basic access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy, negatively impacting their health, well-being, livelihoods and local environment. At the same time, women have a critical role to play in achieving SDG7, but barriers remain. Ensuring access to clean, modern and sustainable energy solutions for women is a fundamental element of a just and inclusive energy transition. The International Day of Clean Energy is an important opportunity to reflect on progress made towards a just and inclusive energy transition and mobilize awareness and action. Energy Compacts are a significant opportunity for all stakeholders - including governments, the private sector and civil society -  to register their energy commitments on the international stage. Join the Gender and Energy Compact and its co-convenors - ENERGIA - International Network on Gender and Sustainable Energy, UNIDO, GWNET: Global Women's Network for the Energy Transition and Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) - to catalyze action towards gender equality and women’s empowerment to accelerate a just, inclusive and sustainable energy transition. #InternationalCleanEnergyDay #SDG7 #WomenInEnergy #EnergyTransition
