The University of Edinburgh’s Global Development Academy is organising a series of events over the coming fortnight intended to catalyse research collaborations around energy access, energy systems and energy transformations in sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia and Latin America. 

These events are timed specifically to support researchers interested in imminent funding opportunities under the UK Government’s Global Challenge Fund, DFID's Total Energy Access Fund, Innovate UK's Energy Catalyst, and the FCO's Prosperity Fund.
