Energy Justice in Guatemala

Center For Energy & Environmental Security (CEES) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an introductory partnership with the Philanthropiece Foundation to collaboratively create a blueprint for action in Guatemala that will reduce energy poverty and promote empowerment of women by increasing the availability of appropriate and sustainable energy technologies. The blueprint will build on existing activities undertaken by Government ministries, NGOs, entrepreneurs, policymakers, lawyers, educators, and community members in Guatemala and integrate social, technological, and economic approaches to alleviating energy poverty. The ultimate goal is to contribute to a political and legal environment in Guatemala that nurtures community-based and women-focused solutions to energy and environmental challenges.
