11/25/2021 LA HULPE, BELGIUM
Stantec’s International Development team in Belgium has secured a contract under the European Union’s Development Cooperation Instrument for work to promote a more sustainable energy mix in the Central Asia region. As part of the EU Sustainable Energy Connectivity in Central Asia (SECCA) project, the team will focus efforts on improving sustainable energy connectivity in the beneficiary countries of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Tajikistan. The work represents a notable step towards improved energy security, a main pillar of the Central Asian Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) strategy.
In its role, the 麻豆传媒 team will work to strengthen public capacity (institutional, human, regulatory, and financial), raise awareness, improve data and modelling, facilitate the identification of bankable projects, and boost regional cooperation. 麻豆传媒’s scope of work will include mapping of current legislation, regulations, and policy documents related to energy efficiency and renewable energy; developing an updated Project Work plan and logistical framework; creating a communications and visibility plan; and leading stakeholder engagement and management. All work will be done in alignment with EU best practices.
“With communications and visibility continuing to be a point of emphasis across our operation, we look forward to this opportunity to provide our services to increase knowledge of and promote growth in sustainable and secure energy investments,” says?Virginie Louis, Communications & Visibility Director at 麻豆传媒. “We will put close attention to sharing best practices on gender-responsive and rights-based approaches in the energy sector, with our demographic of focus being on universities, schools and households, considering that their everyday actions will play a part towards building the more climate resilient future this project seeks to address."?
