Taller: apropiación social de la transición
Te invitamos a participar en el taller “Apropiación Social de la Transición”. Este espacio tiene como objetivo facilitar el aprendizaje colaborativo y colectivo sobre las transiciones justas y la apropiación social de la tecnología. Las transiciones energéticas justas son indivisibles de la apropiación social de la tecnología. Esta última permite una mayor participación y control de las comunidades locales, la co-creación de soluciones energéticas adaptadas y la memoria y reconocimiento de las injusticias del modelo energético actual.
Este evento se llevará a cabo en la Hemeroteca de la Universidad Nacional (Laboratorio Innovación para la Paz).
¡No olvides registrarte. Aforo limitado!
Organizan:
- Centro de Pensamiento para la Estructuración de la Sustentabilidad en la Educación Superior
- Proyecto Eléctrica
- Proyecto Apropiación Social de las Tecnologías para la Sustentabilidad.

TRAJECTS Joint Virtual Lecture: EXPLORING ALTERNATIVE RENEWABLE ENERGY FINANCING PATHWAYS
Event overview:
Title: Exploring Alternative Renewable Energy Financing Pathways
Format: Virtual Lecture
Date and Time: 16:00-18:00 (GMT+2), 16 November 2023
The upcoming virtual lecture invites a conversation about alternative financing models for renewable energy technology, diverging from the conventional reliance on multinational corporations public-private partnerships. The central focus lies on addressing the capital needs essential for transitioning to renewable energy that considers sustainable production and consumption, restorative practice of planetary systems, energy access and affordability.Recognizing the government sector's budget constraints, hinders their ability to fund the transition adequately, this conversation places emphasis on forging partnerships broader than the public and private sector. The primary aim is to engage with possibilities of various public-public partnerships that might ensure a more equitable and just energy transition. The lecture also underscores the recognition of energy as a fundamental social need (SDG 7) and explores the concept of renewable energy as a 'public good' within the framework of a just transition.

Basis for ensuring just transitions to sustainability: Lessons learned from the TRAJECTS Center in Latin America
Since 2021 TRAJECTS in Latin America has favored cooperation and knowledge exchange around the consolidation of Just Transitions towards sustainability with community-based organizations, local researchers, academics and representatives of public and non-governmental sectors. The participation of TRAJECTS in the Regional Conference on Just Transitions in the Andean countries was an excellent opportunity to present some of the foundations that from experience we consider necessary to build truly Just Transitions in the Latam region.
