interesting advances that the energy industry has made in this regard, the three<br />

practices and move forward".<br />

Win-Win Program of UN Women, and Marcela Zulantay, Gender<br />

Coordinator of the Ministry of Energy, delivering the latter a report on the<br />

progress of companies and organizations in the energy sector in the field of<br />

gender through the Energía +Mujer Plan of their portfolio. Subsequently, the<br />

conversation panel "Industry, now more than ever, with unity towards<br />

Gender Equity" followed, moderated by Jerome Carcelén, President of the<br />

Geothermal Council, which was attended by Macarena Deney, Assistant<br />

Manager of Corporate Affairs and Communities of Chilquinta Energía, María<br />

Teresa González, General Manager of Statkraft and Chairwoman of the Board<br />

of Generadoras de Chile, Paola Hartung, Director of Regulatory Affairs of AES<br />
