International Women's Day: Empowering women, empowering humanity!

Everyone needs energy, but not having electricity or clean, efficient ways to cook brings especially tough challenges for women in developing countries. By empowering women through access to clean energy, whole communities benefit. To mark International Women's Day, SEforALL's CEO Kandeh Yumkella urges support for the current theme of the UN Decade of Sustainable Energy for All, dedicated to women, children and health.
