| Description
|
For the past three years, Humanitarian Engineering and Energy for Displacement (funded by the UK’s Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council) has been working to bring about a better understanding of the energy needs of displaced populations in Rwanda and Nepal by documenting energy usage, needs and aspirations. In co-designing renewable energy systems, HEED hopes to encourage sustainable energy solutions that generate community resilience and capacity building in the displaced context.
The conference will share HEED’s findings on designs, community co-design processes and planning tools for sustainable energy interventions as well as the data and evidence base built during the project. We will also be hosting presentations on other similar projects as well as hearing from researchers and practitioners in the humanitarian energy sector.
