Training was held within “ReEnergy” Initiative
From 11th to 13th of June 2014 training named “ReEnergy: Towards Sustainable Energy Policy of Local Communities” was organized in Belgrade Open School.
The training was created for representatives of local self-government units, public enterprises and civil society organizations.

Robert Pasicko from the United Nations Development Programme in Republic of Croatia has introduced participants with his experience on establishing renewable energy cooperatives. These kinds of cooperatives serve as a good example of energy management on local level.
