🌍 Collaborating for Sustainable Cooling Solutions ❄️ On Day 3 of the #GOGSFE24 forum in Nairobi, SEforALL, in partnership with The World Bank and ESMAP - Energy Sector Management Assistance Program, co-led a session on ‘Cooling to Improve Lives and Livelihoods.’ Drawing from our latest joint report “Sustainable Cooling in Off-Grid Rural Areas” (https://lnkd.in/deQfYWYb), the session spotlighted exciting innovations in technology, business models, and finance for sustainable cooling. Key actions were outlined to create an enabling environment for these solutions, which are crucial in addressing climate impacts and improving lives in vulnerable communities. As SEforALL’s Rahul Srinivasan stated: "In a warming world, access to cooling is no longer a luxury but a basic right. Cooling is essential for protecting lives and livelihoods— reducing exposure to heat stress in homes, schools, clinics, and workspaces, vaccinating young children and indisposed adults, and improving productivity of those who work or study under challenging heat conditions. The energy, health, education, and agriculture sectors must prioritize sustainable cooling which is linked to the attainment of several United Nations Sustainable Development Goals." Let’s work together to advance these solutions and create lasting impact. #SustainableCooling #EnergyAccess #ClimateAction #SDG7 #TransformingLives #TransitioningEnergy Leo Blyth, Clemencia Torres de Mästle, Ben Hartley, Elizabeth Wangeci Chege, GOGLA
