Abstract:
There is a strong consensus in academia and practice that women’s networks play an important role in their members‘ career advancement, skill development, and the overall representation of women in decision-making po-sitions (Allison et al., 2019; Clancy & Feenstra, 2019; Waberg, 2016). However, there is a lack of studies on women’s networks in the energy sector and their effectiveness in factors such as establishment, development, and maintenance. Thus, more practical insights from a variety of views (covering from network members to board members) on the goals and expected outcomes of women's networks are needed.

This Study focus on development journeys of women’s networks in the energy in-dustry to identify and describe best practices, recommendations for community leaders and stakeholders in establishing, developing, and maintaining women’s networks that can make positive changes to address gender inequalities and foster just energy transition.
