This has led to increased efforts to promote energy eff iciency solutions tailored to humanitarian settings' specific needs and co ntexts. In this seminar\, we will explore how energy efficiency can improv e humanitarian conditions and discuss some of the challenges and opportuni ties associated with implementing energy efficiency measures in these cont exts.\n\nCo-sponsored by: Region 8 Committee on Climate Change\n\nSpeaker( s): Dr Hanan M.
