Join us for seminar & discussion on "Banking on Renewables: Can the World Bank and climate finance deliver just and inclusive energy transition?" ⌛Thursday 24th October, 8:30 am to 10am ET 📍Bank Information Centre Office, 1023 15th St NW 10th Floor, Washington, D.C. 20005

It’s the first day of the World Bank Annuals meetings and we’re on the ground asking the World Bank to set it straight and kick polluters out. 🦵🏽🦵🏾🦵🏿 You cannot claim to be a climate champion if you’re funding fossil fuels! #WBGmeetings #LivablePlanet #GasIsBadEconomics

Climate impacts, debt & lack of energy access are felt most keenly by women & marginalised gender groups, especially those at the sharp edge of poverty. That's why the World Bank must prioritise gender-sensitive approaches. 📣Gloria Kafui Kuzo Strategic Youth Network For Development(SYND) #WBGMeetings #BankOnRenewables

Despite commitments to align all new operations with the Paris Agreement, the World Bank's Development Policy Finance (DPF) still supports countries to invest in outdated energy models, including #FossilGas Read our report about DPF: re-course.org/newsupdates/bl… #WBGMeetings

At #WBGMeetings this panel is talking about Development Policy Finance that accounts for over 25% of World Bank lending. But how are environmental and social safeguarding applied? What of stakeholder engagement?

Securing women's energy access needs should not be treated with a '1 size fits all' approach It must be an intentional priority, driven by #MDBs through sustainable policies & financing mechanisms that integrate gender equity into decision-making 📣 Gloria Kafui Kuzo 🇬🇭 #ClearHerPath
