Indigenous Clean EnergySocial Enterprise

Published purpose

This project aims to deliver specialized renewable energy capacity-building to Indigenous Communities in Colombia and Ecuador to empower them to address their needs, drive sustainable change, and participate in the clean energy transition. The project seeks to support community-led approaches for adopting clean energy and energy-efficient solutions for Indigenous Peoples to actualize climate change mitigation in Colombia and Ecuador. It also seeks to decrease barriers for Indigenous Peoples to access and benefit from clean energy capacity-building programs. Through accessible and inclusive clean energy needs assessments and policy recommendations by, for, and with Indigenous Nations in Colombia and Ecuador, the project enables the adoption of more equitable practices leading to Indigenous-led clean energy solutions.
