Virtual Thematic Event on the Social Impact of the Energy Transition in Ibero-America
Lithium has gained undeniable relevance in the global context due to its central role in the transition towards electromobility and the fulfillment of carbon neutrality commitments. At a global level, public policies are focused on reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, with the transport sector being one of the main focal points of action.
The Centre for Human and Social Sciences (CSIC) of Spain at the IV Ibero-American Researchers’ Night 2024
The Ibero-American Researchers’ Night is an initiative that aims to promote the link between research and society, scientific vocations and society’s interest in science. It is part of the European project European Researchers’ Night, promoted in Madrid by the Madri+d Foundation. The OEI joined in 2020, celebrating its fifth edition this year.

Within the framework of the EULAC Energytran project, Dr. Noemí Sogari represented UNNE in a panel on solar thermal energy applications. The meeting sought to strengthen international collaboration in research to achieve a clean and fair energy transition.
The National Institute of Technology of Mexico – Aguascalientes Institute of Technology, a participant in the Energytran project funded by the EU, is the only Mexican institution participating
A scientific cooperation project brings together 11 institutions from Europe and South America to promote the transition towards cleaner and more sustainable energy sources, under a horizontal cooperation model with a high social impact. It is called Energytran, and INESC TEC is one of the partners; the Institute will host researchers and support them in the development of technological solutions.
On March 6, the EnergyTran international scientific cooperation project was launched in Madrid, with the aim of promoting the transition of Europe and Latin America towards cleaner and more sustainable energy sources under a horizontal cooperation model with a high social impact. The project is led by the Organization of Ibero-American States for Education, Science and Culture (OEI) within the framework of the European Commission’s ‘Horizon Europe’ program, together with a consortium of 11 research centers, including CENIT-EEyN-UNSAM.
The OEI, within the framework of the ENERGYTRAN project, publishes an article on Women and the Energy Transition through a series of policy recommendations.
This report has been prepared as a systematization process following the realization—and considering the content, conclusions, and recommendations—of the Thematic Virtual Event “Strengthening Europe-Latin America Cooperation in the Energy Transition: […]
The OEI, within the framework of the ENERGYTRAN project, has published Policy Recommendations on technology and gender for the energy transition: the role of technology in the energy transition with a special focus on lithium, green hydrogen, and solar energy in Latin America and Europe from a gender perspective. The report is published as a contribution to the national governments of Ibero-American countries, the international cooperation system, and civil society in general.
The Energytran program is an initiative of the European Commission coordinated by the Organization of Ibero-American States for Education, Science and Culture (OEI). It involves eleven European and Latin American institutions, among which is the Center for Research for Transformation (CENIT) of the UNSAM School of Economics and Business.
Ibero-America is a region that has much to offer to the world. All the countries in the Ibero-American space have signed both the Paris Agreement and the 2030 Agenda. The energy transition in Latin America is also generating valuable experiences and knowledge for international networks of exchange and academic collaboration on this topic. An example of this is ENERGYTRAN, a scientific cooperation project between Europe and Ibero-America for the energy transition, coordinated by the Organization of Ibero-American States for Education, Science, and Culture (OEI).
ENERGYTRAN and Ent-r-e-novators, two European projects collaborating in the dissemination of scientific Cooperation and excellence, innovation and energy transition.
