Asalkhon Sharipova

Climatologist

Asalkhon is freshman at UWED pursuing a degree in international law. Studying law, she came to the conclusion that not only the human life, but also the way the world is structured can be unfair. The developed countries get the most out of exploiting resources of the developing- and hence succeeding in centralizing their power in different sectors especially the coal-based energy sector, while the developing countries are left with nothing but to depend on their developed counterparts to supply themselves with essential needs especially electricity. Having previously studied climate economics and green energy at CSO, she was capable to establish three ways developing countries can be self-sufficient in electricity and deriving them from green sources of energy without experiencing financial losses. 'It is time we did something to free ourselves from the dirty hands of government monopolies to have a CHOICE to build a sustainable future of our own '- she thinks.
