Young people across the globe are taking the lead on climate action. But to make the most out of their efforts, they need to have the right knowledge.
One of the most pressing challenges for emerging economies is the scarcity of jobs among youth. But the sustainable energy and energy efficiency sectors can deliver a significant number of job opportunities.
In this context, the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) is working to help Egypt’s youth realize their potential.
Two UNIDO projects, Utilizing Solar Energy for Industrial Process Heat in Egyptian Industry and Industrial Motors Energy Efficiency Programme, recognize the need to develop the necessary human capital pipeline to meet the needs of the rapidly growing sustainable energy sector. At Egypt’s universities, UNIDO is running capacity building and training sessions on energy management.
