This piece, written with Mujer y Medio Ambiente and the International Energy Initiative Brasil, explains why we need to transform the practices and structures that uphold inequity in the transition to cleaner, more resilient #energy systems.

Women are walking in a desert landscape in Colombia. These women belong to the Wayuu tribe. They are going to work in the salt flats early in the morning. The text over the image reads "Achieving a just energy transition with gender justice".
📢 New SEI perspective reflects on gender and cultural dialogues, explaining why it is not possible to have a #JustEnergyTransition without #GenderJustice. 🧵 1/2
Handing out beetle stickers, reviewing journal submissions, #codesign-ing a project logo with school pupils... what do all these things have in common?

A view from above onto a street with four lanes for cars in one direction. The cars have stopped at a congestion, leaving some free space behind them. There, a man is running across the four lanes. Behind him, cars and a bus continue.
Seven people are waiting on a narrow refugee island at an intersection. There are puddles on the traffic island, and the people have spread out around them. One person is standing off the refugee island on the roadway because there is little space and many puddles.
An older woman is stepping on a bus from an uneven sidewalk. The entrance of the bus is higher than the ground. She has lifted her shopping trolley and a plastic bag full of goods on the bus and is trying to step inside as well. Her one foot is on the high entrance of the bus, the other foot is still on the ground.
A narrow street is is lined with street-food stalls on the one side. On the other side, many scooters are parked. In the space between, people are walking and scooters are driving past. Above, advertising posters and tangled electrical wires can be seen.
📸 Our photo story series "Same same but different" explores how mobility practices make spatial justice visible.
We zoomed in on how people navigate congestion, weather, infrastructure gaps or shared space. The ordinary moments reveal who cities are designed for – and who they quietly leave behind.
Four young people stand on a small refugee island in the middle of busy intersection filled with rows of cars.
Evening view at a crosswalk. A bus has stopped in the middle of the crosswalk, blocking it in full length, and two scooters have driven partially on the crosswalk. Four women in light beige uniforms and facial masks have passed the bus and are crossing the street.
A sidewalk and a path to a store are full of green rental e-scooters, partially blocking the road to the store.
A street full of cars. The cars are stuck in traffic, and in the foreground several cars are parked along the side of the street. On the sidewalk, which is narrower than the parking spaces, a cyclist is trying to ride through between two men who are standing there. In the background are tall buildings and greenery growing on them.
Mobility is never just movement.
The routes people take, or cannot take, reveal subtle patterns of advantage and exclusion woven into the fabric of cities.
🧑🦽🚴 Everyday journeys expose how opportunity, risk and dignity are negotiated on sidewalks, crossings, streets and transit systems.
