Third Sustainable Energy Workshop of the Caribbean Energy Awareness and Education Programme
(CEEAP)
Date: March 18-20, 2015.
Venue: St. John’s, Antigua – City View Hotel and Conference Centre
From 2008-2013, the OAS implemented the Caribbean Sustainable Energy Program
(CSEP) with the financial support from the European Union. The beneficiary
countries were Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, The Bahamas, Grenada, Saint Kitts

Between 2011-2012, OAS/CSEP conducted the delivery of two regional workshops, (i) to review with science curriculum officers from the beneficiary countries the approach to design a program to integrate energy literacy within the science curricula and (ii) launched the Caribbean Energy Education and Awareness Programme (CEEAP) and its communication campaign Learn and Save.
The program targeted policymakers and the education community in order to:
Build Sustainable Energy within National Education Strategies;
Strengthen Pedagogy with regards to Energy in Formal and Non-Formal Education,;
Raise energy awareness among Primary and Secondary school students by our “Learn and Save” campaign.
