Sustainable Energy Development (. In the Africa region, limited access to the services provided by modern energy hinders the fight against poverty. The challenges of the energy sector in Africa are many and greatly impact on the overall performance of the region’s social and economic indicators. These key challenges include extremely low generation, transformation and transportation capacities; low access to and supply of modern energy, particularly in rural areas; weak human and institutional capacities especially related to governance in the energy sector; lack of adequate tools for effective energy planning and policy formulation; and a weak energy demand base. Overcoming these challenges will need intensive and organised energy activities including energy planning to facilitate informed energy decision-making. The excessive dependence on traditional fuels, especially by the rural population is another challenge on the environment front. This has adverse health impacts mainly on women and children, and causes deforestation. The situation in urban areas is not very encouraging where pollution from a poorly maintained transport fleet and inhuman living conditions in the slums are worsening with time. Provision of cleaner modern fuels to rural as well as urban populations will considerably help to improve their living conditions. The high dependence on traditional biomass energy by a large section of the population in Africa for cooking is a problem. Firewood and charcoal burn inefficiently, and can contribute to deforestation. The use of firewood and the production of charcoal produces adverse emissions which have great health impacts on users especially women and children.
Sustainable Energy Development (. In case it is so decided by the governing bodies of both organizations, experts from ECO and UNECE may jointly work in order to promote energy efficiency measures in the region, to reduce energy intensity of their national economies, increase effectiveness and quality and the development of new kinds of energy resources. Experts from ECO and UNECE may also cooperate on the issues of data collection, creation of data base, analysis and assessme nt on the world energy market and on the issues of energy pricing, the technologies of gas and oil storage and security of energy transportation and on regulations and norms for deregulation of energy markets.

  • Workforce Development MPC’s technical training program is having a major impact in the region. Online modules, short courses, webinars, and on site/videoconferencing events are reaching state and local transportation department employees and tribal transportation planners. By harnessing the capabilities of the four LTAP centers located at the MPC universities and the multimedia capabilities of the Transportation Learning Network (which was founded and is partly funded by MPC) more than 76 technical training events were offered in the second half of 2015. These training modules and short courses are critical to transportation agencies that need to improve or renew the skills of engineering technicians and other frontline workers. Many MPC courses or training events result in the certification of workers. Even when certification is not required, TLN’s online learning management systems allow employees and employers to set learning goals and monitor progress towards these goals. MPC is making another major impact in workforce development. Altogether, 57 graduate students are working on MPC research projects under the tutelage of faculty researchers. These graduate students represent the researchers and technical analysts of tomorrow. Without the MPC program and the stipend funds that it provides, these students may not be specializing in transportation; but, instead would be seeking career opportunities in other fields. The MPC research program allows faculty to mentor graduate students while allowing the students to work on projects for federal and state transportation agencies—thereby, gaining valuable practical experience.
