How they approach the work
Named approaches extracted from this org’s sources. Where others share an approach, follow it to see the full set of orgs running it.
- Inclusive Stakeholder Dialogue for Collaborative Problem-Solvingmethodology: inclusive-stakeholder-dialogueBy convening diverse stakeholders—including the public, policymakers, and experts—in an informal and inclusive setting, we foster dynamic dialogue that generates collaborative solutions to critical energy challenges, because inclusive participation enhances legitimacy, innovation, and policy relevance.
- Integrating Labor and Economic Equity into Energy Policymethodology: labor-integrated energy policyBy emphasizing good-paying jobs and labor considerations in energy discussions, we advance a just clean energy transition because linking climate solutions to economic opportunity increases public and political support, particularly among working communities.
