Home Alone and Highly Vulnerable: Why Women are at the Greatest Risk on Energy Poverty

Studies show that solo women in Europe are more vulnerable to energy poverty, and it is often overlooked by policymakers. 

We will explore the causes of women's vulnerability in the UN-ECE region and propose housing solutions that support women to escape the energy poverty cycle. 

We will highlight renovation solutions and turning vacant buildings into affordable homes for women. Participants can share their ideas about how to influence the policymaking processes for positive change for women.
