For the week of International Women's Day, we're putting a spotlight on research related to gender equality and social inclusion in the WASH workforce (water, sanitation and hygiene services). Our guest is Avni Kumar who is a Senior Research Consultant in the Institute for Sustainable Futures at UTS with a background in development economics. The discussion extends to themes that are relevant for women in the wider workforce, the importance of including men in gender inclusion efforts, and Avni's own experience of returning to work from maternity leave.

Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
