Energy access as a pathway to sustainable development
Clean Energy for All is an initiative of the Sustainable Development Council (SDC) focused on advancing access to affordable, reliable, and sustainable energy in line with Sustainable Development Goal 7.
The initiative works to bridge the energy gap by promoting renewable energy solutions, clean technology adoption, and energy literacy in communities that need it most.
Through partnerships with governments, private sector innovators, academic institutions, and local communities, Clean Energy for All supports the transition toward cleaner, more equitable energy systems.
Recognized with Special Consultative Status by the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) from 2021.
The initiative focuses on raising awareness about clean energy options, supporting policy dialogue on energy transition, and facilitating partnerships that bring renewable solutions to underserved communities.
Clean Energy for All also works to build local capacity by training community leaders, educators, and practitioners in clean energy planning, implementation, and advocacy.
By combining research, policy support, community engagement, and technology partnerships, the initiative contributes to accelerating the global transition toward sustainable energy access.
