Patience Ahiadorme is a mother of six and Sales Force Manager for the off-grid solar company PEG in Asesewa, Ghana. Her day-to-day routine juggling with home chores and her job is possible thanks to PEG’s pioneering gender policies, where the company has attracted gender-conscious investment, and through the climate fund operated by the asset manager responsAbility.
The private debt fund addresses the lack of access to clean power primarily in Sub-Saharan Africa and South and South-East Asia and qualifies for the 2X Challenge, a leading initiative deploying and mobilising capital to empower women and enhance their economic participation in emerging markets. As the first adopter of the 2X Challenge, the EIB is committed to promote gender-conscious climate investments and supports responsAbility's Climate Fund.
