About this grant

This grant will support Fundación Ambiente y Recursos Naturales to analyze current and proposed energy investments by international financial institutions in Argentina as well as national energy strategies. The project will monitor a set of high profile projects including hydroelectric energy, natural gas, biofuels, and renewable energy. Information generated on these projects will be disseminated to policymakers, media, and the public, with the goal of both improving existing projects and shaping policies for future sustainable energy investments. Fundación Ambiente y Recursos Naturales is a nongovernmental environmental organization based in Buenos Aires that has worked for the past 25 years to promote sustainable development through policy, law, and civic engagement.
