Women remain underrepresented across the energy sector and disproportionately affected by energy poverty, health risks, and limited access to finance and technology. Gender-blind policies exacerbate these inequalities. The session will explore how gender-responsive strategies, action plans, and data frameworks can empower women and enhance climate outcomes. It will highlight the economic and environmental benefits of diversity, such as improved profitability, innovation, and sustainability, and underscore the need for gender-disaggregated data and indicators to track progress.
