We cannot confront the climate crisis without transforming our current energy system, dismantling an energy system built on extraction, colonialism, and injustice – and building something different in its place.
Following the release of the first U.S. brief on Transport, Climate and Energy, WEDO is launching its second on August 28, 2024, authored by Sanjana Paul, on the intersection of gender, climate and energy in the U.S.
The brief puts forward critical gender considerations for energy decision-making practices, accessibility, affordability, health and safety issues, inequities in the gendered employment within the energy sector, and beyond.
An accompanying launch event on August 28 brought together a panel of energy and feminist advocates, organizers and activists approaching the transformation of the energy system in different ways, teaching us about their analysis, ongoing work, and visions for more just energy systems.
