British Council Israel Initiates Energy Exchange With Turkish Experts

britishbrit-flag israel photoThose clever clever folk over at the British Council Israel are this week hosting a live video conference with British energy expert Francis McGowan and an audience in Turkey, all from the Council offices in Ramat Gan.

Francis McGowan, senior lecturer in politics from the University of Sussex, is a member of the Sussex energy group, based at the University, which aims to “identify ways of achieving the transition to sustainable, low carbon energy systems whilst addressing other important policy objectives such as energy security” through cross-disciplinary research and dialogue with policy-makers and practitioners.

It’s not so clear from the press release whether McGowan will be here or in Turkey, but he will be speaking about ‘European Energy policy in a changing environment’, and the two communities will be linked by a live video link.

The event is on Wednesday, March 25th, at 6 PM (18:00), and is at the British Council headquarters at Hahilazon 12, Ramat Gan, as one of their Cafe Scientifique events. Further info from them at 03 611-3623
