On July 5th-11th leaders, NGOs, youth organisations, and other stakeholders will gather in New York for the 2022 High Level Political Forum to reflect on how recovery policies can reverse the impacts of the pandemic on the SDGs and accelerate actions towards the 2030 Agenda. The HLPF will also review in-depth Sustainable Development Goals 4 on quality education, 5 on gender equality, 14 on life below water, 15 on life on land, and 17 on partnerships for the Goals.
Within this context, ENERGIA, UNDESA and UNIDO side event “Interlinkages between SDG5 and SDG7: Closing gender data gaps to inform energy decision making”, taking place virtually on Monday, July 11, will draw the attention on the need for high-quality, sex-disaggregated, and consistency in data collection to address the interlinkages of energy with other SDGs and how access to affordable, sustainable, and clean energy is a precondition for the achievement of SDG5 on gender equality and the empowerment of all women and girls.
This side event aims to foster a dialogue between decision makers, leading experts and organizations to highlight the importance of applying a gender lens on energy data in order to accelerate gender-transformative progress towards the 2030 Agenda. It will focus on initiatives and experiences from other organisations, including members of the Gender and Energy Compact, the global, multi-stakeholder coalition led by ENERGIA, GWNET and UNIDO.
Date: July 11, 2022 Time: 10:00 – 11:30 am EST (4:00 – 5:30 pm CEST) - Duration: 1h30 (virtual)
