With support from our Empowering Women, Engendering Energy (EWEE) program, ENERGIA partner, Senegal-based Energy for Impact, supported the country’s Ministry of Energy to include gender in its long-term action plan for the energy sector, the Senegalese Rural Electrification Action Plan (LPDSE).

Thanks to these efforts gender is now one of the cross-cutting themes in Senegal’s national energy action plan, with a budget allocated for implementation of concrete gender actions in renewable energy projects.
