Maya Angelou —a notable American literary artist and dedicated civil rights and equality defender, reminds us that our earthly needs are interconnected. Destroying one means destroying everything else. May our actions be inspired by the need to protect our one and only home.

EarthSpark's @UNFCCC @Momentum_UNFCCC award winning "Feminist Electrification" is a powerful concept, but how can we formalize it into something that truly shapes the sector? Looking at @CriterionInst and other thoughtful movement-builders for inspiration. https://t.co/4Q4IQ8GjRb

Well-planned mini-grids can help with electrification https://t.co/vee7lH4gki Thanks @washingtonpost for printing @amarchambault's letter and highlighting EarthSpark's work! Turns out the boring stuff is the secret sauce! :)

“In rural Haiti, we need to ask what is the best technology of today and then use that!” People went from no phones to WhatsApp! Same needs to happen with other tech. @emmadouyon #hdi5 @HaitiDevInst

On #InternationalWomensDay, we invite everyone working on #SDG7 to embrace "Feminist Electrification." When women participate and lead in all aspects of designing + delivering #SE4All, everyone wins. #genderjustice and #climatejustice are inextricably linked. #EmbraceEquity

Siloed approaches are stalling #SDG7. That's why we're working with @UN_Energy on an #EnergyCompact to bring clean electric cooking powered by ☀️-powered #minigrids to thousands of homes and businesses in #Haiti. #COP27

🎯 Yes! Oui! Wi! @ibrahimmatolamw and @DamilolaSDG7 preach #SDG7 silos no more! Integrated energy planning multi-solves and delivers better results than addressing #cleancooking and #EnergyAccess separately. We need more of this thinking in the #minigrid sector. 🙏 #ecooking
.@ibrahimmatolamw and @DamilolaSDG7: Ensuring access to both #electricity and #CleanCooking options would go a long way toward helping the #GlobalSouth tackle its energy, climate, and development challenges https://t.co/kPuYXmeupz

Update: 1 gallon of gasoline is now selling for US$15.80 (2000HTG) in Les Anglais, #Haiti. Fossil fuel supply is fragile. The sun, meanwhile, continues to arrive daily. Yes, we are planning on expanding our #solar #microgrids!
One gallon of gas is now nearly $12 in #Haiti right now. If you can find it.
