Healthy villages are smart villages - places where people can live healthy
lives with longer lifespans, fewer childhood illnesses and deaths, and
greater well-being.

In this webinar, we will think about the intersections of health and
energy. Indoor air pollution remains one of the most deadly elements for
many people in the developing world. We will hear about a new clinical
trial that offers data and ideas about solutions. We'll also learn about
innovative refrigeration technologies for remote areas that need to keep
vaccines and other vital life-saving tools cool. We also plan to discuss
other crucial issues, such as nutrition and clean water. Join us for this
exciting webinar!

*About LCEDN <http://lcedn.com/>*
The Low Carbon Energy for Development Network (LCEDN) brings together
researchers, policy-makers and practitioners from across the United Kingdom
to expand research capacity around low-carbon development in the countries
of the Global South.

It links existing expertise in international development, renewable energy
transitions and science and technology studies in order to enhance and
support interdisciplinary research, learning and policy-formation for this
increasingly important and rapidly changing field.

The LCEDN comprises internationally-renowned universities and thriving
energy research institutes, alongside partnerships with the UK’s Department
of Energy and Climate Change (DECC) and expanding worldwide associations.
This enables a unique environment for dialogue, discussion and the
generation of ideas for funding.


*About Smart Villages <http://www.e4sv.org/>*

The Smart Villages Initiative is a global initiative that aims to provide
policymakers, donors, and development agencies concerned with rural energy
access across the Global South with new insights on the real barriers to
energy access in villages in developing countries – technological,
financial and political – and how they can be overcome. We are have chosen
to focus on remote off-grid villages, where local solutions (home- or
institution-based systems, and mini-grids) are both more realistic and
cheaper than national grid extension. Our concern is to ensure that energy
access results in development and the creation of ‘smart villages’ in which
rural communities have access to healthcare, education, clean water, ICT,
and livelihoods. See our recent publications and workshop reports here:
