Dear Sirs/Madam
We are excited to extend an invitation to you on behalf of WE Connect for the "Advancing Inclusive JET" event, hosted in collaboration with the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
WE Connect, is as a unique platform dedicated to connecting under-represented individuals (particularly women) within the Energy Sector with a primary focus on gender diversity in the Renewable Energy (RE) industry and its value chain.
The event will shed light on the untapped opportunities, economic potential and talent that can drive innovation and sustainability in the sector. By attending, participants will gain exclusive insights and research highlights into the latest developments in renewable energy, discover success stories of individuals breaking barriers, and understand the intrinsic value of fostering diversity in the energy landscape.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Advancing Inclusive JET event, where the conversation on inclusive growth and diversity takes centre stage.
Date: 15 February 2024
Venue: Protea Hotel by Marriott Upington
24 Schroder St
Upington

Time: 07:30 for 08:00, until 17:00
We advise further that Women Energy Connect (WE Connect) is a platform connecting over 1400 women in the energy sector in different parts of the value stream.
We’ve attached our profile – for you to get a better idea of our work and efforts in the sector.
Our focus is largely on keeping people informed about the opportunities – and ensuring that under-represented groups (in particular) are not left behind as the industry grows exponentially.
To this end – we have partnered with the UNDP to host a series of workshops on “Advancing Inclusive Just Energy Transition” in the country, with a focus on “Building the Bridge between Aspiration on Opportunity”.
