How the IKI is advancing the global energy transition
|
Dear IKI partners and friends,
The month of March was dedicated to the global energy transition as the Berlin Energy Transition Dialogue took place for the eleventh time. The main objective of the international conference is to promote dialogue and cooperation between the key stakeholders in the energy transition. In this newsletter, you can find out how the International Climate Initiative (IKI) contributed its experience on the topic of the energy transition, one of its strategic fields of action.
We also report on IKI projects around the world that are working to make the energy supply more climate-friendly and improve energy efficiency - whether in industry or in the building sector. Advancing the energy transition requires committed and well-qualified people in all disciplines - from politics to the field. This is also where the IKI comes in, for example by supporting the training of skilled workers in Latin America and the Caribbean or the further training of young people as energy innovators in Argentina.
Enjoy reading!
Best regards,
Your IKI Communications Team
