Impact Talks: Going Beyond Energy Access

12. Dezember 2023 von 13:0013:45

Why we should talk less about energy access and more about income-generating activities

Join us for our first Green Tech edition of Impact Talks to hear from our expert guest speaker, Ndiarka Mbodji.

Nearly a decade after the SDGs pledges and billions of dollars poured into “Universal Access”, we are yet to witness any significant shift in the economic conditions of the millions of unserved populations of Africa.

In a world where words drive actions, and actions drive results, the race to “access” has focused the minds on “connections” rather than growth. So, are we having the right discussion and focusing on the transformative power of energy?

As energy is the indispensable prerequisite for enhancing economic development and improving the quality of human life – should we not talk more about growth and focus the financing efforts on beyond access, bridging the gap between energy access and income-generating activities that will ensure sustainable and long-term energy usage?

Join us for a passionate talk that will highlight why focusing more attention and financing on Beyond Access would accelerate the access to energy, baseline to sustainable growth.
