NUS institute partners with Rockefeller Foundation to boost SEA energy shift

The foundation awarded the NUS Institute $370,000 to start a climate policy fellowship.

The National University of Singapore's Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy's Institute for Environment and Sustainability (IES) partnered with The Rockefeller Foundation to accelerate Southeast Asia's (SEA) energy transition efforts.

IES received a $370,000 (US$275,000) grant from The Rockefeller Foundation to start a climate policy fellowship and lead dialogues to boost regional energy connectivity in Southeast Asia over the next two years.

The collaboration will strengthen the capacity to deliver renewable energy from one country to neighbouring countries' high-demand areas, supporting SEA’s energy transition and development goals.

The grant also backs the increasing focus on climate policy discourse in and for the Global South, and The Rockefeller Foundation's five-year billion-dollar climate strategy to promote the global climate transition.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
