The course "Energy Narratives: Journalism for a Just Transition in La Guajira" has begun
On July 11, the training program titled “Energy Narratives: Journalism for a Just Transition in La Guajira” began in the city of Riohacha, La Guajira. The program is organized by the Regional Center for Responsible Business and Entrepreneurship – CREER, the Insuco Center for Social Innovation – ICSI, the Territorial Transformations Observatory, Transforma, the ANDI Plus La Guajira Roundtable, and the University of La Guajira.
This initiative, which will run until August 9, brings together a group of 30 journalists, social leaders, and youth from the department who seek to broaden their knowledge and experience on topics related to the energy transition in the region, such as renewable energy, climate change, decarbonization, narratives for the transition, intercultural dialogue, and communication tools, among others.
The course will take place at the University of La Guajira and will be held on Fridays and Saturdays, with 8-hour sessions each day. In addition, participants will engage in field trips, project visits, and other experiential learning opportunities to deepen their understanding.
At CREER, we are actively engaged in this training process, convinced that spaces that foster knowledge-sharing, informed debate, and constructive dialogue are vital for enriching conversations and jointly building strategies for the sustainable development of the territory.
We extend our thanks to the other organizations co-leading this initiative. We are confident that it will empower professionals, leaders, and youth with more knowledge and tools to advance the just transition in La Guajira from diverse perspectives.
