Blueprint for a Sustainable Energy Partnership for the Americas

Project Report

April 13, 2009

This report identifies three opportunities to lay the groundwork for the development of lasting sustainable energy partnerships based on cooperation around strategic need:

  1. an energy and environment hemispheric research initiative;
  2. an agenda for a sustainable Amazon; and
  3. a new approach to the electricity sector in Central America and the Caribbean.

Four hemispheric organizations are collaborating on this project: The Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI); the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR); The Brazilian Centre for International Relations (CEBRI); and the Institute of International Relations at the University of the West Indies (IIR UWI).
