Lecture Series: Global Trends in Women's Employment in Renewable and Clean Energy: Continuities, Contradictions, Disruptions
2025-01-16 10:00 - 12:00 | Online
Bluewater Association for Lifelong Learning Presents: Women, Peace and Security.
This week: Global Trends in Women’s Employment in Renewable and Clean Energy: Continuities, Contradictions, Disruptions
Lecturer – Bipasha Baruah
Concerns about environmental sustainability and fossil-fuel insecurity have motivated countries around the world to transition to clean energy supplies derived from renewables such as solar, hydro, bioenergy, geothermal and wind. Since producing and distributing clean energy is more labor-intensive than producing and distributing fossil fuels, this shift is creating new employment opportunities and addressing energy poverty in remote or under-served communities. Although there is tremendous potential to create employment in clean energy almost everywhere in the world, there is growing concern that women, who are already underrepresented in the sector, will become even more marginalized if gender equity policies and programs are not proactively planned and implemented. This lecture will identify opportunities and constraints for women’s employment in clean energy in industrialized, emerging and developing economies, and makes recommendations for optimizing their participation.

Excuse Me. + Animal Boy

Excuse Me. and Animal Boy make their much anticipated return to Heartwood. With members hailing from Owen Sound and all over Ontario, both bands bring an unbridled energy that will leave you with a song in your heart and fire in your belly. Come warm up and keep the winter at bay with a night of live music, the occasional moshpit, and good friends.

With a combination of emotional depth and an intention to push boundaries, Excuse Me. has a way of taking complicated song writing and presenting it in a way that both pulls your heart strings and makes you want to scream and move your feet. Praised for their high-energy live performances, Excuse Me. shows are an experience that keep people coming back again and again. They left an impression on thousands of people at Meadows music festival in Fergus after performing alongside The Trews and Half Moon Run in June 2024. Having just released their sophomore LP “The Light”, and with new music already on the way, Excuse Me. are a band you’re going to want to pay attention to.

Animal Boy are a band from Guelph, Ontario. Four anxious twenty-somethings who write extremely honest songs that you can dance to. Sometimes those songs sound like indie/surf and punk. Living in a city that is very, very far from the ocean. We’re doing it anyway!
