Description

This episode is a call to action.


Recorded at the stunning Florence School of Regulation, this special episode of Energ’Ethic shines a very necessary light on the link between representation, power, and progress in the energy transition.


Let’s say it again: there’s no energy transition without equality. From gas platforms with no toilets for women, to boardrooms still stuck in the status quo, the energy sector has work to do. But there are people doing that work, and doing it brilliantly.


Enter Joana Simão Costa, who leads the European Commission’s Equality Platform, and Ilaria Conti, behind the Lights on Women initiative and the LUCE Awards.


Together, we unpack:

  • why the Equality Platform is rewriting the rules from the inside,

  • how Lights on Women and the LUCE Awards went from grassroots frustration to global celebration, and

  • what it really takes to turn systemic bias into collective momentum.


This episode is for anyone who’s ever walked into a room and felt out of place, and for those ready to build rooms where everyone belongs.


Highlights:

“Should we fix the women or fix the system?”
Spoiler: it’s the system. Always.


“No ladies’ toilet at the gas substation? That’s the message.”
Inclusion starts with infrastructure.


"If you don’t see anyone like you in the room, it’s because you are unique. Find what makes you you—and build on it.”
Yes. That’s a quote worth framing.


From idea to impact
How Lights on Women handed out over 50 training scholarships, and why visibility is still half the battle.


Mentoring, but smarter
Inside the Equality Platform’s B2B mentoring: because no one should have to reinvent equality on their own.


LUCE means light, and action
Why celebrating legacy leaders and emerging talents matters. For confidence. For visibility. For change.
