In December last year Professor Vanesa Castán Broto, Principal Investigator (PI) of JustGESI and CESET, submitted evidence to a call from the International Development Committee in Parliament based on their research and findings from ESRC GCRF funded project Community Energy Systems and Sustainable Energy Transitions in Ethiopia, Malawi and Mozambique (CESET).

The JustGESI Malawi team participated in the 2025 Malawi National Energy Conference and joined a virtual side-event titled ‘Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI) in the Energy Sector: Policy and Action.’ The team introduced the JustGESI initiative and engaged stakeholders in discussions on inclusive energy policies, gender disparities, and the role of energy entrepreneurship in advancing GESI.
