Uruguay: Association of Women in Energy

The Asociacion Uruguaya de Mujeres en Energia – AUME (Uruguayan Association of Women in Energy) was launched in November 2023 during an Energy Week co-organised by the Inter-American Development Bank and Latin American Energy Organisation (OLADE).

It is the first women association related to the energy sector in the country, bringing together women professionals from both the private and public sectors at different stages of their careers to share their experience and foster strong professional networking opportunities.

The project also hosts training opportunities for the members of the Association, and plans to hold regular meetings from 2024 onwards to better understand and respond to the challenges women professionals face in a sector which has a wide gender disparity.
