THE TWILIGHT WITH MATHIAS (17 SEPTEMBER 2025)
Understanding Energy Transition from a Rural Woman’s Perspective
Rural women often rely on traditional energy sources like firewood for daily needs. While these practices are rooted in necessity and culture, they are considered to pose significant environmental and health risks. As global initiatives push toward clean energy—like solar—how do rural women perceive this transition? Do they understand the implications, and are they willing or able to adapt?
In The Twilight we discussed this into the complex intersection of gender, environment, tradition, and innovation—through the lens of rural women’s point of view who lived it.
