Client International Energy Agency (IEA)
Status/Duration ongoing
The origins of the Equality Initiative date back to 2010, when it was founded as an initiative by the Clean Energy Ministerial. In June 2017, the Equality Initiative was reorganized using the International Energy Agency (IEA) Technology Collaboration Programme (TCP) format, becoming one of the 38 technological programs of the IEA.
ÖGUT acts as the secretariat for the Equality Initiative and provides support in various areas, including:
- Organizing and conceptualizing high-level events at ministerial, international, and national levels.
- Managing contacts and fostering network development.
- Handling membership invitations and administration.
- Managing public relations and coordinating both internal and external communication.
- Supporting the biannual Executive Committee meeting.
- Overseeing content management and maintaining the website and social media accounts.
- Managing finances.
- Preparing reports and documents.
Through the establishment of a network that facilitates international cooperation and information exchange among member states, there is also an opportunity to share successful strategies for advancing gender equality and diversity within the renewable energy sector collectively.
