Gendering the clean energy transition in Africa: unlocking women's participation in clean energy examines the critical relationship between gender equality and Africa's transition to sustainable energy systems. The report highlights that while clean energy presents significant opportunities for economic growth, social development and environmental sustainability, women continue to face disproportionate burdens from energy poverty, including limited access to electricity and clean cooking solutions, health risks, time poverty and restricted economic opportunities. It argues that a gender-responsive and equitable energy transition is essential for achieving inclusive and sustainable development across the continent.
