An important feature of the project is to properly incorporate the gender dimension in the analysis of the impact of population changes on economic and social development. Gender constitutes a key factor to take into account when formulating sustainable development policies. While much academic and policy interest has been focused on the demographic dividend, it is likely that the “gender dividend” would be of a similar or greater magnitude.

  gender mainstreaming

Building on the existing gender mainstreaming efforts, the energy Portfolio has recently launched an initiative to develop an action plan at the strategic level, and also an operational level guideline for all project stakeholders, including gender analysis tools and indicators to be applied throughout the project cycle. gender mainstreaming of its sustainable energy portfolio will allow UnIdo to continue its political leadership and strengthen its comparative advantage in promoting and accelerating IsId. ClImate PolICy and networks UnIt Inspiring the Future the sustainable energy and Climate resilience Initiative (sIds doCk) in partnership with the United nations Industrial development organization (UnIdo) and the regional organizations is coordinating the “Island women sustainable energy and Climate resilience network”. the flagship initiative promotes gender mainstreaming in the sustainable energy sector of small Island developing states (sIds) in the Pacific, Caribbean, africa and Indian ocean. without the active participation of women, it is impossible for sIds to transition to sustainable energy for all and to achieve the sIds doCk goals: to increase energy efficiency by 25 percent (2005 baseline) and to generate a minimum of 50 percent of electric power from renewable sources and a 50 percent decrease in conventional transportation fuel use by 2033: Island energy for Island life 25-50-25 by 2033. across the islands women face similar barriers to take advantage of sustainable energy services, investment and business opportunities. the network is supporting sIds-sIds activities, projects and exchange through a network of regional sustainable energy centres, namely the Caribbean Centre for renewable energy and energy efficiency (CCreee), the Pacific Centre for renewable energy and energy efficiency (PCreee) and the eCowas Centre for renewable energy and energy efficiency (eCreee). the centres are operating under the umbrella of the Caribbean Community (CarICom), the secretariat of the Pacific Community (sPC) and the economic Community of west african states (eCowas). the gender network convenes a powerful advocacy group for sustainable energy and gender issues in sIds and provides a strong link between international agreements and concrete action on the ground. the network executes and supports activities in five programme areas: 1. gender mainstreaming in policies, processes, program and project cycles 2. gender-responsive capacity and institution building 3. gender-responsive awareness raising and advocacy 4. gender-responsive investment and business promotion 5. gender-sensitive knowledge and technology transfer and exchange the network creates links to already ongoing regional and national energy-gender programmes such as the eCowas Programme on gender mainstreaming in energy access (eCow-gen) or the gender mainstreaming program of the secretariat of the Pacific Community (sPC). the network is supported by the global Forum on sustainable energy (gFse), the Clinton Foundation, the austrian development agency (ada) and other partners.

  Creating capabilities in local environments and production networks | Publication | Economic Commiss

The endogenous capabilities of the agents, the degree of development of the environment they operate in and their integration in a production network have become key elements for developing capabilities and creating competitive advantages. It is being asserted more and more frequently that the competitive advantages of countries, regions and agents do not necessarily derive from their factor endowments but can be constructed through the development of endogenous capabilities and linkages with other agents. In the transition from static to dynamic advantages, the capacity to learn -conceived as an interactive process imbuing the whole of society- plays a key role. (...)
