Energy Poverty Gender Study Synthesis Report

The objectives of EnPoGen are to:

 

  • To identify the linkages between access to energy or electricity and poverty alleviation and gender equity in general—and specifically in the countries considered.

  • To quantify the impacts of access to modern energy on poverty alleviation, development, and gender equity in the countries considered.

  • To draw from them lessons that may improve the impact of projects of the World Bank and ASTAE on poverty alleviation and gender equity in the countries considered, and possibly in other countries.

  • To contribute to the development of a methodology for monitoring the poverty impacts of energy projects.
