WATCH | Women on the Move Dialogue looks at the future of cleaner energy solutions

Empowering the next generation of women in the energy sector is essential for fostering innovation, sustainability and equity in a traditionally male-dominated field.

As the industry shifts towards cleaner energy solutions, diverse perspectives, particularly those from women, become increasingly important. 

This empowerment requires a collaborative effort involving education, mentorship, policy support and innovation. By creating an environment where women can thrive and lead, the energy sector can become more inclusive, dynamic and resilient, ultimately driving progress and sustainability.

Industry leaders and experts shared insights on the role of women in this vital sector during a recent Women on the Move Dialogue, held by the Central Energy Fund Group in partnership with the Sunday Times — watch the recording above.
