Hi Michael –

This is a very interesting topic. Note that there are some CNs whose focus is tech and sustainable energy.

There are many dynamics in the refugee camps, and we are talking to a few people/orgs to see what we might be able to do for CNs in the camps or for CNs that could be started.

The politics are tricky, but let us see.

Best,

Jane

In response to the alarming numbers of displaced people around the world and their unreliable access to sustainable energy, IRENA collaborated with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in developing the study Renewable Solutions for Refugee Settlements. We are pleased to invite you to join IRENA's next webinar to discuss how renewable energy solutions could provide the refugees with clean, reliable, and cost-efficient energy for their daily needs:

on Tuesday, 28 April 2020
at 10:00 - 10:30 CET

As part of the IRENA's webinar series, this webinar will share insights and takeaways from the study, outline avenues to replicate the proposed renewable energy solutions in other refugee settlements, and share possible business models to increase the uptake of renewables, as well as to enable the participation of private actors.

The webinar will feature a guest speaker from UNHCR Ethiopia:
Dr. Deribe Gurmu
