The main objective of this project, launched by "Sustainable Energy Center - Sun House", was the introduction of solar energy usage in sheep breeding in Georgia through capacity-building and pilot implementation. In conjunction with the demonstration of solar energy technologies in a designated sheep-breeding farm (e.g. solar battery charging system, portable solar cooking and water heating system), capacity-building within local SMEs and awareness-raising amongst the shepherds were key issues. The results of the project included an outline of a sustainable financial scheme, which was presented to interested stakeholders and potential investors.

Exchange: Community Trainers for Renewable Energy Technology Use in Sustainable Food Production and Water Management
The focus of this exchange activity is a social alliance and collective learning process between NGOs and rural communities from three regions of Colombia (Santander, Córdoba and Antioquia). It is based on the accumulated results achieved previously in a WISIONS supported project and ongoing community work in the field of renewable energy and sustainable livelihood strategies.
