The International Institute of Refrigeration and UNEP OzonAction have launched a Women in RACHP Global Survey with support from AIRAH, AREA, ASHRAE, CAR, FAIAR, IOR, ISHRAE, JSRAE, REHVA, and WRD.
Refrigeration, air-conditioning, and Heat-pumps (RACHP) are crucial for our health, nutrition, comfort, and well-being. It is one of the sectors that crosscuts many of the UN sustainable development goals and can contribute significantly to safeguard the environment, advance welfare of humanity and support the growth of employment and economics worldwide. However, the engagement of womein in our sector is often either under-represented or un-recognized around the globe. The aim of this survey is to better understand the background, motivation, challenges, and opportunities faced by women working in the in refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat pumps sector.
The survey opened on 21st December and will be available until end of January. Please take part and circulate this within your networks to colleagues and friends
