Energy equals development. Basic human rights, such as water, food, healthcare and education, are all dependent on energy.

An inclusive society with reduced inequalities. This is common goal among all members of the UN. An inclusive society means everyone can fully participate and belong in society, including those who are dealing with a disability.
