WEEK project activities support women to build their social capital, develop fundamental business skills, and improve their confidence as entrepreneurs; these women now drive behaviour change, convincing others to adopt clean energy options. Five WEEK project entrepreneurs appeared at the recent SEforAll Forum to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.energia.org\/meet-winners-energia-women-entrepreneurship-award\/\">share their experiences<\/a>, demonstrating a growing appetite to hear rural women\u2019s grassroots knowledge on global stages.<\/p>\n<h2>Smiling Through Light: be the change that you want to see<u><\/u><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/smilingmk\">Smiling Through Light\u2019s <\/a>Founder and Director Mariama Kamara highlighted the centrality of women\u2019s knowledge, empowerment and collective action to building environmentally sustainable pathways to sustainable energy access; emphasising in particular the diverse roles women play across the energy value chain from production and transportation, to distribution and end use. At the age of nine Mariama left Sierra Leone during the civil war; after later learning that energy use in Sierra Leone was still mostly limited to kerosene for lighting, with no access to clean energy services, she started Smiling Through Light in 2014. By doing so, Mariama became the change she wanted to see. Smiling Through Light now advocates for women, as primary consumers and users of clean energy products, to be integrated into the process of designing appropriate solutions and engaged throughout the value chain to improve their livelihoods.<\/p>\n<h2>The path to SDG7<\/h2>\n<p>There remain many clear opportunities to advance women\u2019s positions across the energy access value chain, including:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Policy<\/strong> \u2013 Advocate for policy that goes beyond perceiving women as victims of energy poverty or mere consumers, but as potential drivers of the sector. Embrace and lobby for the critical role of smaller, distributed energy solutions in addressing rural energy poverty, and women\u2019s unique contribution to this sector.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Finance<\/strong> \u2013 Recognise that women\u2019s access to finance is often constrained by social, political and economic constraints; i.e. collateral requirements based on land or asset ownership. Dedicate specific financing, credit facilities, grants and concessional loans to women\u2019s sustainable energy activities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Skills<\/strong> \u2013 Address the significant skills and local workforce development gaps in energy access in a way that empowers more skilled women to participate across the value chain, and educates others on the value of their contributions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Evidence<\/strong> \u2013 Continue to build evidence to help inform policy on why women in clean energy value chains are uniquely positioned to make a lasting impact; bringing local women entrepreneurs and decision-makers\u2019 voices and experiences to the fore.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_2435\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2435\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2435\" src=\"https:\/\/access-coalition.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/WomanEnergy_Entrepreneusellingbriquettestocustomers-1024x683-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/access-coalition.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/WomanEnergy_Entrepreneusellingbriquettestocustomers-1024x683-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/access-coalition.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/WomanEnergy_Entrepreneusellingbriquettestocustomers-1024x683-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/access-coalition.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/WomanEnergy_Entrepreneusellingbriquettestocustomers-1024x683-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/access-coalition.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/WomanEnergy_Entrepreneusellingbriquettestocustomers-1024x683-1-200x133.jpg 200w, https:\/\/access-coalition.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/WomanEnergy_Entrepreneusellingbriquettestocustomers-1024x683-1-400x267.jpg 400w, https:\/\/access-coalition.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/WomanEnergy_Entrepreneusellingbriquettestocustomers-1024x683-1-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/access-coalition.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/WomanEnergy_Entrepreneusellingbriquettestocustomers-1024x683-1-800x534.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-2435\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">An entrepreneur from the WEEK project makes money and heat from waste, selling to customers at market<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-19364 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/practicalaction.org\/blog\/\/srv\/htdocs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/WomanEnergy_Entrepreneusellingbriquettestocustomers-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"An entrepreneur from the Women in Energy Enterprises in Kenya (WEEK) project makes money and heat from waste, selling to customers at market\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As energy access advocates and champions of gender equality we must continue to find opportunities, like at CSW61, to demonstrate the positive impacts that women\u2019s economic empowerment in energy access initiatives has for themselves and their families, as well as their extended communities and international development practice more broadly.
