Description / Buyer

Utilità Manifesta / design for social, social promotion association based in Italy support the 2012, year of sustainable energy for all, promoting Energy for All International Competition.
Designers and videomakers can play a basic role in the promotion of everyone’s access to modern energy services at sustainable prices, thus contributing to the achievement of the eight development targets of this millennium:
-to increase farming productivity
-to educate
-to relieve women and girls from toils
-to save lives
-to advance in medicine and healthcare
-to contribute to the independency of communities
-to construct bridges to the future.
The unavailability of clear, accessible and reliable energy sources hinders any human, social and economic growth. This is attested by the resolution 65/151 of the General Assembly of the United Nations and is restated by the IEA – International Energy Agency
– where it maintains the urgency of coping with the severe problem of energy scarcity and making energy an available resource for all
