1 Million Women 'Women Power' Questionnaire May 2013 |
Answer the questions below to nominate for Women Power Pilot
1 Million Women is teaming up with the City of Sydney to pilot our 'Women Power' network. Our aim is to make saving energy 'sexy' and engaging - for the benefit of our household budgets, the wider economy and the planet.
So we’re after 10 fantastic women volunteers to have equipment installed in their homes to become Women Power pilot sites. Participants will be supported to become experts on electricity use in their own homes. They will learn how to monitor it, understand it and most importantly save it.
The successful volunteers will need to be available to attend two – three training workshops, report on their energy-saving experiences, participate in our 'Women Power' public event in October, and possibly take part in media engagements - all over a six month period from July 2013.
In return, participants will receive state-of-the-art energy management equipment and software worth over $400 per household free of charge, and will be able to keep this after the pilot is completed. You will also receive support that could help you save hundreds of dollars a year off electricity bills for your household.
To volunteer you need to be a member of 1 Million Women living within the City of Sydney local government area (for more details click here ). Our project team will select the 10 successful volunteers to create a strong, diverse and enthusiastic set of participants.
If you'd like to volunteer please answer all of the questions below.
NOTE: Short-listed applicants will be contacted by email and we will announce final outcomes via the 1 Million Women website and Facebook when the 10 successful volunteers have been selected. I Million Women’s participant selection will be final.
CONFIDENTIALITY: Information you provide for this questionnaire will be kept confidential to our project team and will not be used for any other purpose than selecting our 10 Women Power pilot participants.
