Topic outline

  • Module 1: REER Co-Creation Process


    • The first module of the course provides a comprehensive overview of the co-creation process, a collaborative approach essential for the design and implementation of REER (Rural Energy Efficiency Roadmap) measures. The aim is to provide a sound theoretical and practical basis for understanding how co-creation principles can improve the effectiveness and acceptance of energy solutions.

      The module explores the main characteristics of co-creation, highlighting its definition, its benefits in terms of inclusion and innovation, and its added value for rural communities. The different stages of the process are explored, with a focus on the identification of key stakeholders and strategies for their active involvement. The module also addresses the main challenges that can arise, such as managing complex communications, diversity of opinions, and overcoming cultural barriers, and proposes practical solutions. Finally, the module closes with practical examples and real case studies from the pilot countries to inspire and guide your concrete application of the concepts learnt.


  • Module 2: REER and Stakeholder Engagement

    • The second module is designed to delve into the topic of REERs and energy efficiency measures for rural areas, and the crucial role that stakeholder involvement plays in their development and implementation. This module is a bridge between theory and practice, providing operational tools to translate sustainability principles into concrete actions.

      It explores the definition of REERs and their role within the RENOVERTY project, highlighting the importance of these measures in promoting sustainable and customised energy solutions for rural communities. Subsequently, it guides users through a structured, step-by-step approach to creating REERs: from the identification of objectives to the selection of priorities and the definition of necessary actions and resources.

      Particular attention is paid to the role of stakeholders, who are key to ensuring transparency, accountability, and long-term success. It also addresses how REERs can support the energy transition, promoting sustainability and fostering collaboration between different stakeholders. This module offers a combination of theory, practical tools, and real case studies to enrich your understanding and preparation of creating and leveraging REERs for local, regional, and national contexts.
