Situation
Global inequality has risen for the first time in decades and 700 million people are now living in poverty. At the same time, climate warming of 1.5 degrees Celsius is now locked-in. Without affordable, reliable and clean energy, sustainable livelihoods will remain beyond reach for the poorest people and climate change will continue to accelerate. Joined up action on poverty and climate change has never been more urgent.
Solution
Renewable World works with climate-vulnerable communities to improve access to life’s essentials - water, health, education and livelihoods - using clean energy. We help unlock demand for energy and support communities to install technologies like solar micro-grids, water pumps, biogas and early warning systems. We then support communities to use these technologies to achieve long-term transformation in food security, health and education, and sustainable livelihoods.
