DEWA enhances the effective contribution of women in climate action and energy transition

Dubai, UAE: Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) constantly empowers its female employees. This strengthens national efforts to engage all members of society in climate action and the energy transition. DEWA spares no effort to enhance the effective presence of female employees in the energy sector, especially in renewable and clean energy and sustainability. This contributes to preserving the UAE’s leadership in supporting the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030, and achieving the goals of COP28, that the UAE hosted at Expo City Dubai. These goals seek to include everyone, especially women and youth, in combating the effects of climate change, finding innovative solutions, and developing and implementing climate plans and policies that are suitable for all.

DEWA consolidates the UAE and Dubai’s efforts to engage women as effective partners in climate action at the national and global levels. This aligns with the journey of women’s empowerment, set forth by the late Founding Father Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan; and has the unlimited support of HH Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, President of the UAE; HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai; and HH Sheikha Fatima
