Energy education initiatives in Jujuy

Overview

Educational programs in Jujuy, Argentina, are promoting energy awareness and sustainability through student-led projects. The “Un minuto por la energía” (One Minute for Energy) contest, organized by the Instituto de Artes Audiovisuales de Jujuy in collaboration with the provincial Secretariat of Energy and the Ministry of Education, invites secondary school students from the Yungas, Valles, Quebrada, and Puna regions to create short educational videos regarding energy efficiency and renewable resources.

In a related effort, the “Circulando Energías” (Circulating Energies) program has gained international attention via a report by Deutsche Welle (DW TV). This provincial initiative involves the Secretariat of Energy alongside the Ministries of Infrastructure, Education, and Environment and Climate Change. The program engages students and teachers in developing environmental projects, such as constructing solar kitchens, creating biodigesters, and installing solar panels to power classrooms across approximately 90 participating schools.
