The event will give particular focus to the imperative for a just and equitable energy transition that delivers climate progress while forging development opportunities for low- and middle-income countries and Small Island Developing States by ending energy poverty. The forum has become the landmark global gathering to drive faster, broader progress on universal access to sustainable energy, as called for by Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG7). It is a platform for government, business and finance leaders, entrepreneurs, youth and community representatives from around the world to come together to broker new partnerships, spur new investment and address challenges at the nexus of energy, climate and development.
