Hosted by Power Africa: Women are Leading Africa’s Just Energy Transition

Boardroom 2: East Ballroom

Collaborative boardroom discussions where all participants contribute.

Studies show that national governments and private sector companies with greater representation of women in leadership are more likely to adopt climate friendly and just policies. This research suggests that women’s engagement and leadership is vital to steering responses to Africa’s energy crisis and through a just energy transition.

Join us as women leaders representing the interests of African governments, the private sector, financial institutions, emerging technology, and youth speak to the question: “What will it take to achieve a just and inclusive energy transition”?

Opening Remarks: Katerina Ntep, Deputy Vice President, Sector Operations, Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC)
