WOMEN IN THE AFRICAN ENERGY SECTOR
gender gap in the African energy sector.
Africa Women in Energy is on a mission to rewrite the script!
AWIE, the brainchild of the celebrated lawyer and founder Lady Gifty Tetteh, is on a mission to rewrite the script. AWIE primarily seeks to bridge the gender gap in the energy sector. Although established in Ghana, AWIE operates in the whole of Africa and is composed of persons devoted to the inclusion, development and upliftment of women.
The Energy Sector is at the core of most African economies. The production of efficient energy supply to sustain these economies is unsurprisingly the heartbeat of the respective African governments. There is, therefore, a wealth of employment opportunities available in the sector, from extraction to the distribution of energy.
Notwithstanding the infinite opportunities available, women are woefully under-represented in the energy sector in Africa. Research shows that the energy sector has come a long way, and can boast of the inclusion of women in the sector to an estimated 14% (according to energy digital quoting GETI 2019).
