Since December 2010, Dr. Decio Gazzoni had lead the International Working Group linked to  ICSU ROLAC, in order to develop a proposal aiming to fostering Renewable Energy on the LAC Region, called “Sustainable Energy Systems for Universal Energy Access and to Mitigate Global Climate Change: Design of a Regional Program for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (RE & EE) Research and Innovation Networks in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC)”.
