7th Annual RedBioLAC Conference in Santiago de Chile
This year marks the 7th edition of RedBioLAC’s annual conference, which will take place from 9th to 13th November 2015 at the Universidad de Chile in Santiago de Chile. The conference will bring together practitioners in the domestic biogas sector and those interested in learning more about the technology. WISIONS is supporting the conference financially and will also actively participate in it.
This year’s conference focuses on the growing opportunity and need for biodigestion in Latin America, faced by rapidly increasing urban populations, unstable fossil fuel prices, and a growing concern for effective reduction of greenhouse gases and other environmental impacts from agricultural and urban environments. The conference will bring together actors to share successful experiences, research, and opportunities for multi-sector impact and new funding opportunities.
The event will be held in Spanish language without translation services. The registration form, the conference programme (pdf) and more general information is available in Spanish only on the website of RedBioLAC. Our media partners at Energypedia will provide up-to-date information on the event. A live stream of the event is available here.
