The
emPOWER Cooperative
Our vision
Individuals of all genders gain lifelong awareness, confidence and skills to make their voices heard in resource decision making in households and communities.
Our Mission
The emPOWER Cooperative seeks to identify a set of training and mentoring tools to strengthen agency, break gender stereotypes, improve understanding about energy services, and broaden perspectives of life options and opportunities; and to contribute evidence that these tools influence decision making and resource use priorities, leading to lasting change.
Our Work
The emPOWER Cooperative is working on Phase IV, exploring training within the Municipal Energy Planning process in the Far Western region of Nepal.
emPOWER* refers to a specific package with an evolving mission of integration. Meet our team or read more about our 7-year journey.
In Phase III, we did this training in a single municipality. Read the Spotlight article about it.
