"This series reflects on the transformative power of energy access. Within access itself lies energy — a sense of possibility, hope, and change. It enables the capacity to work, to study, to gather, to rest. Each image reveals how access becomes energy in its own right: sustaining resilience, shaping dignity, enhancing safety for women, and opening space for life to continue — after dark, and through new opportunities for learning, productivity, and livelihoods that would otherwise remain out of reach."
