Weatherizers Without Borders develop a weatherization project in Montevideo, Uruguay.
The partnership between WWB and the Uruguayan National government started back in May 2014, when the “Inter-American Weatherization Exchange Program” was launched in Montevideo. At that time, officials and experts from Uruguay, the US, Argentina, Chile and Perú participated in a conference.
Also as part of the exchange program, sample energy audits were performed with a group of international experts.
Work continued with a project in 2 stages:
First, a pilot weatherization program was designed, the stakeholders network was created and funding was secured by an agreement between WWB and CAF.
In a second stage, a group of National Officials was trained.
