Energy for underserved Populations – Gender Considerations Patricia Taboada-Serrano Liaison to the IANAS Energy Program IANAS Women for Science Working Group Energy Project Meeting Bogotá, Colombia June 9 – 11, 2011

Women – the largest subgroup within underserved populations The 1.2 billion of people living on and on under USD 1 per day (70% are women) People living in rural areas and cities poverty belts, mostly women, because men have moved away to follow job opportunities

Differences in gender perception on energy availability Rural community set to choose access to one energy source MEN: decision- making based on energy source – e.g., electricity for quality of life and education WOMEN: decision-making based on energy use – e.g., gas for household (reduce workload & costs)

Women engineers – strategic agents for development  S&T transfer is an essential element in all development work  The targeted populations are majority women, who need to be engaged and empowered as partners  Female engineers will be effective agents of empowerment by, 1. educating girls and encouraging them to become scientists and engineers 2. promoting the participation of female engineers in programmes, companies and research institutions

6th Meeting of the National Focal Points of the IANAS Water Programme November 22-23, 2011 Lago Titicaca, Bolivia Session on Gender Issues in Management of Water Resources Report by Nicole Bernex, WfS-WG Liaison

WfS-WG invited and sponsored three speakers: Nicole Bernex, Geologist, Amazon Basin Mariela García Vargas (Instituto Cinara, Universidad del Valle, Colombia). Community Management of Rural Water Supply in the Andes Maria Angélica Allegría, Chief Engineer, Water Resources, Ministry of Public Infrastructure, Chile. Role of Gender in water management Bernex report is in Conference materials

Vargas : In engineering faculties where teaching has a technical bias, it is essential to emphasize social and environmental dimensions using a gender approach, in order to contribute to Sustainable Human Development. Allegria : Academies and universities must insist that women be included as partners in sustainable water management projects. Bernex: W omen must be recognized as a central element in the supply, the management and the protection of water. Gender and ecosystem approaches must be combined.

The pivotal role of women as providers and users of water/energy and guardians of the living environment must be recognized in development and management of water/energy resources. Policies are needed to address women’s specific needs and to equip and empower women to participate at all levels in water/energy resources programmes, including decision-making and implementation, in ways defined by them. Paraphrasing Bernex 2011

Effect on IANAS Energy and Water Programs Energy - Hour-long (unscheduled) discussion - New action group formed re cultural aspects of development projects Water - Speakers actively participated in meeting - Speakers invited to contribute to publications in preparation
