Headline UN-DESA Awards First "Powering the Future We Want" Grant 
Caption Description The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA) awarded its first ""Powering the Future We Want"" grant to We Care Solar, to enhance and expand the use of its 'Solar Suitcase', a medical device that prevents maternal and child complications during labour in areas without electricity. The $1 million dollar grant aims to fund capacity development activities in energy for sustainable development and is carried out by DESA in collaboration with the China Energy Fund Committee (CEFC), a Hong Kong-based non-governmental organization in consultative status with the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC).
