Dear Colleagues,
We kindly invite you to the second International Energy Poverty Action Week - IEPAW, a grassroots event, held annually in the third week of February that brings together academics, policymakers, practitioners and other stakeholders in the field of energy poverty, access and justice across the world.
Divided this year into five key themes, Health, Social, Policy, Economy and Futures, each day of the week will be dedicated to an aspect of what is needed to eradicate energy poverty, bringing together stakeholders from a range of backgrounds for lively and engaged dialogues across a series of webinars. Online actions and partner satellite events will be happening throughout the week, running in-person and digitally. All related to energy poverty.
We aim to be as inclusive and accessible as possible, and invite all to join us, to share the message that it is time to #ActOnEnergyPoverty.
