How Virtual Events Drive Global Inclusivity
Where many islands are at the forefront of policy, governance, technology and in solutions for environmental and sustainability issues, they have often lacked an ability to share their expertise with their counterparts and the rest of the world.
But how do you connect thousands of islands around the world and create a network capable of helping each other and sharing best practice?
- Dominica, UAE-CREF to sign US$50mn clean energy plant contract.
- Orkney is at the heart of a world-leading renewables revolution.
- From powerful tidal turbines to huge wave machines, Scotland is becoming a hub for marine energy.
- Renewable tech brings power swarming through the world’s poorest villages.
