CERP, in collaboration with Princeton, hosts “Navigating the Energy Transition for a Sustainable Future in Pakistan: Edition III” Workshop

October 30, 2025
CERP and Princeton University co-hosted a two-day workshop, “Navigating the Energy Transition for a Sustainable Future in Pakistan: Edition III,” to address the nation’s urgent energy demands and pave the way for a low-carbon future through technical lectures, interactive group work, and high-level policy dialogues.

CERP, in collaboration with Princeton, hosts “Navigating the Energy Transition for a Sustainable Future in Pakistan: Edition III” Workshop

CERP, in collaboration with the Julis-Rabinowitz Center for Public Policy & Finance (JRCPPF) at the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs and Princeton’s Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment (ACEE), hosted the third edition of the workshop “Navigating the Energy Transition for a Sustainable Future in Pakistan.” The workshop aimed to address the central question of how Pakistan can meet its urgent energy demands while paving the way for a low-carbon future.

Held on 29–30 May 2025 in Islamabad, this edition brought together 35 participants from across Pakistan’s energy ecosystem, including policymakers, regulators, researchers, and public- and private-sector actors. The program combined technical lectures, interactive group work, and high-level policy dialogues, creating a unique learning environment that combined analytical depth with practical, hands-on engagement. Sessions explored demand forecasting, long-run scenario planning, clean energy systems, industrial decarbonisation, policy design for energy transition, and financing mechanisms. A major milestone was the launch of the Pakistan Energy Transition Roadmap (PETR) Project.

The workshop also featured two policy dialogues: “Mobilising Capital for Energy Finance” and “Pakistan’s Energy Transition Policy Planning.” These discussions underscored that inclusive stakeholder engagement, credible data, and iterative, locally grounded policymaking are essential to accelerate Pakistan’s transition. Participants gained actionable insights into forecasting tools, financing opportunities, and practical frameworks for policymaking under uncertainty.

CERP Launches the Femtech Innovation Hub to Transform Women’s Healthcare in Pakistan

The launch event marked a significant milestone for Pakistan’s innovation ecosystem, bringing together policymakers, health experts, and entrepreneurs for a panel discussion titled “Tech for Her: Innovating to Transform Women’s Health.”

Moderated by Salwa Akhtar, Programme Manager at FIHP, the panel featured experienced speakers including Ambreen Iftikhar (Board of Investment), Asma Omer (Founder, Marham), Dr Shaper Mirza (Associate Professor, LUMS), Dr Basmaa Ali (Founder, Zanjabee Integrative Medicine), and Sabah Zubair (Founder, Her Machine). The discussion explored the future of FemTech and its potential to revolutionise healthcare access for women.

Speaking at the event, Imran Zia, Executive Vice President at CERP, emphasised the urgency of investing in data-driven, scalable solutions:

“Pakistan’s healthcare system leaves millions of women without access to essential services. Through FIHP, we are leveraging technology, research, and strategic partnerships to close this gap. By supporting FemTech start-ups, we aim to create sustainable businesses that improve health outcomes for women and drive systemic reform.”

Pakistan currently faces a severe shortage of women-focused health solutions, with over 45 million women lacking access to basic healthcare services. Despite a growing start-up ecosystem, fewer than ten FemTech companies operate in the country. FIHP aims to bridge this gap by equipping start-ups with the resources, expertise, and global networks needed to scale their impact.
