  1. Introduction<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Latin America and the Caribbean have a great potential for renewable energies to move towards a cleaner, safer, diversified, and accessible matrix. However, this transition requires modernizing infrastructure, closing access gaps, strengthening markets, and updating legal and regulatory frameworks. To achieve this, coordination between legislative branches, governing authorities, and regulatory bodies is essential, as well as the strengthening of their technical capacities. In response, the International Italo-Latin American Organization (IILA), in collaboration with the Latin American and Caribbean Energy Organization (OLACDE), propose a training program financed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation of Italy aimed at advisors, authorities, and regulators, providing practical tools to design policies and norms that drive a just, competitive, and sustainable energy transition.<\/p>\n

    1. Curriculum Presentation<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      The initiative seeks to strengthen the capacities of advisors, governing authorities, and regulatory bodies to collaboratively drive the energy transition. Through theoretical and practical training, the program will develop competencies to design and update legislative and regulatory frameworks, and public policies oriented towards an equitable and sustainable transition. Its content is structured into three areas: regional energy context, legislative and regulatory frameworks, and the design and implementation of energy policies.<\/p>\n

      Opening and Closing Activities (in-person)<\/strong><\/p>\n

      The program will be delivered in a combined modality, integrating virtual activities and in-person meetings, and will include an opening session and a closing session. The opening is scheduled for October 09, 2026<\/strong>, within the framework of the XI Energy Week, which will take place in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Similarly, on October 10, 2026<\/strong>, a technical visit to an emblematic energy district in the country will be held. Meanwhile, the closing activity is projected to take place at the PARLATINO headquarters in the first week of December 2026 (exact date to be defined), in Panama City.<\/p>\n

       <\/p>\n

      It is important to note that the program does not cover the costs associated with participation in the in-person activities. Consequently, travel, accommodation, and other expenses must be borne by those who choose to attend these events.<\/p>\n
