Description
In order to achieve the global energy transition, all talents are needed. However, structural and economic barriers still exist for women to enter the sector and to occupy decision making positions.

One of many powerful tools to create more gender equality in the energy sector is gender mainstreaming. Numerous different concepts and attempts of women empowerment are already successfully deployed in different parts of the world, especially in energy partnership countries.

This event is organized in collaboration with the Global Women's Network for the Energy Transition (GWNET) and will take place as an Official Side Event of the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue, which is a leading international forum for key stakeholders of the energy sector. Our event seeks to bring together representatives from various countries to shed light on the different approaches to gender mainstreaming and to identify common solutions, possible synergies and further needed action.

The "Women Energize Women" campaign is a communication initiative of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK). It is implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH and the German Renewable Energy Federation (BEE) within the scope of BMWK’s global project Bilateral Energy Partnerships. The aim of "Women Energize Women" is to inform, mobilise, inspire and connect women around the world who are working to advance the energy transition.
