EXPERTS TO EXAMINE ENERGY FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN AMERICAS
February 28, 2008
National officials and experts gather at the Organization of American States headquarters in Washington, D.C., next Monday, March 3, for the Inter-American Meeting of National Authorities and Experts on Energy for Sustainable Development in the Americas.
OAS Secretary General José Miguel Insulza will inaugurate the meeting, along with Chairman of the Joint Working Group of the Permanent Council and CEPCIDI on the Follow-up of the Declaration of Panama: Energy for Development, Ambassador Aristides Royo of Panama. The goals of the event include helping to define a regional agenda to promote widespread adoption of policies and regulations which will be conducive to the deployment of new and renewable energy in the Americas. It will focus as well on energy experiences and best practices that may contribute to sustainable development in Latin America and the Caribbean.
The meeting is being held as a follow-up to the June 2007 OAS General Assembly session in Panama, where the hemisphere’s foreign ministers issued a Declaration of Panama: Energy for Sustainable Development. That Declaration underscored the need to generate and strengthen regional markets for the use of cleaner and renewable energy, and to exchange information and experiences pertaining to sustainable energy.
The meeting is also being held against the backdrop of rising energy costs and amidst the pressing need to lower carbon emissions.
