Colombia Vertebra Solutions: Efficient, Energetic, and Empowered Mothers
Spearheaded by our Colombian Member Committee in collaboration with Vertebra, this project focused on empowering 10 working single mothers in Bogotá and Cartagena through workshops and training designed to improve their energy literacy and better understand the choices they can make as energy consumers to reduce their energy consumption.
This project was created out of a recognition that households have significant potential for transformative change, especially with regards to energy usage patterns, and is within the wider context of Colombia’s high energy prices and the social factor of over 40% of Colombian households being led by women. These “E Mothers” will serve as the basis for expanding the project throughout 2024 across the city of Cartagena, engaging youths and children in better understanding humanising energy.
