Promoting Integrated, Cross-Sectoral Energy Planning
Promoting Energy Planning
Energy access must go beyond connections to transform livelihoods.
ACCESS advocates for cross-sectoral planning that links energy to agriculture, enterprise development, health, and gender equality. By promoting proven models and least-cost planning tools that account for social and economic benefits, the coalition will help governments design programs that deliver inclusive growth and resilience.
Other Strategic Priorities
Reshaping Energy Access Finance
ACCESS advocates for reforms within multilateral development banks (MDBs) to prioritize decentralized renewable energy (DRE) and clean cooking.
Advancing Inclusive and Pro-Decentralization Policies
ACCESS promotes coherent national and regional policies that integrate DRE and clean cooking into core energy strategies.
Institutionalizing Civil Society Participation and Accountability
ACCESS strengthens civil society’s role in energy governance, ensuring communities are active participants-not passive recipients.
