The World Bank has made commitments to gender equality.
Now is not the time to roll back on those commitments, but instead continue to involve women—especially young women—as critical players in the just energy transition.

The #EnergyTransition is urgent and already underway.
Multilateral development banks must ensure that their #CleanEnergy investments deliver real benefits for young women across the global south, who are among the most energy insecure people.
Here's how: bit.ly/BoR-brief
#WBGYouthSummit
Across Asia, Africa & Latin America, too many young people lack access to electricity, decent jobs and political decisions.
The #JustEnergyTransition is an opportunity to address these inequalities, to improve energy, employment & economic security everywhere.
#WBGYouthSummit #YouthForEnergy
"World Bank energy investments should deliver the needs of the younger generation and offer us a brighter future.
"We need grant funding for locally-owned, long-lasting, renewable energy systems, for and by young people."
📣 Khulekani Magwaza, at the #WBGYouthSummit in Washington DC this week
The #EnergyTransition brings opportunities for decent jobs, economic growth, and a thriving future for young people across the globe, if done right
That's why the World Bank must involve youth in decisions about clean energy investments in their country
