As competitively procured renewable energy generation ramps up in Colombia, training the next generation of clean energy leaders while engaging local communities is more important than ever before.
Renewable energy can increase private investment, economic growth, jobs, and access to clean, reliable, and affordable electricity. USAID supports the Government of Colombia’s efforts to ensure that the traditionally marginalized groups in Colombia also benefit from renewable energy.
USAID is committed to supporting a just and inclusive transition to a low-carbon and climate-resilient economy where Indigenous Peoples, local communities, women, and youth can participate in, benefit from, and lead Colombia’s clean energy future. By engaging traditionally marginalized groups in the development process, renewable energy projects can mitigate the risk of negative social impacts and include these groups in equitable and environmentally sustainable economic growth.
