Call for Expressions of Interest on Gender and Energy Innovation – Introductory Webinar
Date: February 10, 2021
Time: 14:00 NPT / 9:15 CET
The Facility
Hivos, ENERGIA, Energising Development (EnDev) and Modern Energy Cooking Services (MECS) have recently established a Gender and Energy Innovation Facility with the objective to stimulate innovations at the gender and energy access nexus, including on clean and modern cooking.
A number of grants, amounting to up to 25,000 EUR per project, are available for a selected number of local projects that in 3 to 12 months intend to test innovative solutions and approaches to address persisting gender barriers in the access to clean energy.
The Facility is especially looking for innovations on:
- gender and energy entrepreneurship and employment
- gender and energy in the care economy
- gender in energy policy and practice.
Launch of the call for proposals for Nepal
After a successful launch in Kenya and Tanzania we are now launching the Facility in Nepal.
We are particularly encouraging the participation of unusual players in the development sector, out-of-the-box thinkers and those who dare to experiment without being afraid to fail.
