First National Meeting of RedBioCOL in Medellín, Colombia
The First National Meeting of the RedBioCOL network will take place at the Universidad Potificia Bolivariana in Medellín, Colombia. From 30 July to 1 August 2014, Colombian stakeholders will present and discuss “Experiences on Sustainability from Rural Communities, Academia and the Private Sector”.
Biogas technologies have the potential to become a key factor in providing a better life to the Latin American and Caribbean population, as these technologies offer excellent alternatives for dealing with huge flows of organic residues which often are the main cause of severe environmental problems in the region.
WISIONS has been actively supporting the work of RedBioCOL, a national network emerging from RedBioLAC, which gathers institutions and individuals involved in Colombia’s biomass energy sector, impulsing the development of biogas technologies.
The First National Meeting of the RedBioCOL will take place at the Universidad Potificia Bolivariana in Medellín, Colombia. Details and contact to the organisers can be found here: Invitacion PrimerEncuentro RedBioCol
