The Commission has proposed an encompassing strategy to move towards EU industrial leadership in advanced materials, a key enabling technology highly relevant for the twin green and digital transition. The Communication on Advanced Materials for Industrial Leadership puts forward concrete steps enabling to align research and innovation priorities and investments in the EU, ensuring European leadership in this key technology. This initiative, eagerly anticipated by the Member States and industry, is the first step towards a common European approach for advanced materials, laying the groundwork for further action. https://ow.ly/o5OX50QJKjS

If an all-male panel is called a 'Manel', what do you call an all-female panel? KIND OF AMAZING? It was such a dynamic panel session discussing 'Building a Skilled, Inclusive Workforce for the Transition and Beyond' at yesterday's Day 1 of the Power + Utilities Australia Leadership Summit. The conversation ranged from... the need to promote the energy industry as an industry of choice; the need to promote trade skills as a preferred post-high school career; the need to make sure organisations' culture both supports diversity through targets/collaboration/initiatives, but also just by having people in diversity represented across an organisation ('you can be it if you can see it'), the need to 'share the care' across families; the need to support/invest in/fund your employees to be part of training throughout their careers. It was great to get questions from the audience about how to familiarise students with the energy sector from high school (Cert II Career Starts!) and whether we can transition people into the sector (microcredentials for everyone!). There's a lot to be done, but as someone passionate about my industry, about teaching (I didn't lecture for a decade for nothing!) and about life-long learning, I think we've got this! Thanks so much to Anthea Middleton from Powering Skills Organisation, Ruth Groom from Hydro Tasmania, Stephanie Somerville from The Australian Power Institute, and our wonderful moderator Bronwyn See for an amazing session. #energyjobs #powerandutilities #energyisajobforlife

Over the last 24 years, CECP’s driving purpose is to empower companies to drive long-term business success through positive social impact. The responsibility that leading companies have today is evaluating and determining what issues matter to them, and how they should speak up. There is a lot of noise in the media nowadays, but one message is coming through clearly and consistently: workers and other key stakeholders want companies to react to the major events that impact their lives.  Learn more about CECP's values, mission and purpose in my latest interview with Leaders Magazine here: https://lnkd.in/eMHm7795

Mitigating methane is crucial for combating climate change. As a potent greenhouse gas, methane contributes significantly to global warming. Addressing methane emissions helps reduce the rate of temperature rise, minimizes environmental damage, protects ecosystems, and fosters sustainable development. It's a critical step in mitigating the impacts of climate change.
