Global Energy Initiative is an interna-tional not-for-profit organization with the mis-sion of promoting sustainable energy for all to fight energy poverty, protect the environment, and mitigate the effects of climate change. The Initiative aims to create a new energy para-digm that will contribute to more equitable economic and social development—to the benefit of humanity in general—and to the developing and least developed countries in particular. Global Energy Initiative is dedicated to the broader principles and guidelines adopt-ed by the United Nations for achieving the Sus-tainable Development Goals (SDGs) and will contribute to the success of 2014-2024: The Decade of Sustainable Energy for All .
