Promoting women participation in the Pacific energy sector

As of today, the Pacific region heavily relies on petroleum as main energy resource. This is in contradiction with Pacific countries climate pledges and plans and poses serious environmental and health consequences. Hence, shifting toward a more sustainable energy provision is key.

Also, the energy transition brings many opportunity for gender equality. In fact, ensuring women’s contributions in traditionally male-dominated sectors is a matter of equality, but it also brings positive economic and social outcomes.

Glad to see this kind of initiatives happening!
