The Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM)’s Empowering People Initiative (EPI) is
pleased to invite you to a series of four virtual convenings under the newly
launched project entitled Integrated Policymaking and Empowering
Communications for the Clean Energy Economy and Workforce (IPEC). EPI also
asks you to forward this invitation to staff within other ministries.
The EPI initiative is led by the governments of Canada and the United
States, and the European Commission. It aims to help create a diverse and
inclusive workforce and facilitate critical socio-economic components of the
energy transition – particularly in relation to empowerment, skills
development, inclusion and workforce development. The initiative works with
key partners such as the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program
(ESMAP), International Energy Agency (IEA), International Labour
Organization (ILO), International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), LinkedIn
and the US Partnership for Education for Sustainable Development.
It is urgent that we integrate into our normal job roles opportunities to
prevent the worst impacts of climate change and meet the science based
targets for the clean energy transition. In order to match the demand and
supply of qualified and skilled workers for the clean energy transition, and
ensure that energy gains include economic and equity advancement,
governments must engage in collaborative policymaking and program
development.
This project will make it easier for governments to develop more holistic
and integrated workforce and green economy policies and programs, and
overcome fragmented approaches to workforce formation between the relevant
ministries.
This series of meetings therefore helps staff in ministry offices prepare
their countries for a robust clean energy economy with a skilled and
inclusive workforce.
Participants from national governmental offices for energy, education,
employment and labor, industry, economic development, and social affairs and
well-being are invited. Both workforce related staff and other staff are
encouraged to participate to foster the collaborative discussion. The
project is open to all countries. During the convenings, participants will
receive key resources, identify crucial policies and communications, and
create a plan to continue collaboration with other ministries and other
countries. In our first meeting, we will describe the goals of the project,
identify key challenges and provide attendees with essential informational
resources, explain expected outcomes, and provide opportunities to network
with staff within other ministries and countries. This meeting will be held
virtually and we invite you to register using the link below:
Title: Clean Energy Economy and Workforce: Resources, Policies and
Communications
Date and Time: 30 March, 9 am Eastern (3 pm CET)
The meeting will last for 1.5 hour(s)
