Social Responsibility

In line with the global demand for a Sustainable Development Solar Net International cooperates with a number of social and educational projects worldwide.
With our international network Solar Net provides a platform to transfer knowledge, human resources and funds between the partners involved in the network. Furthermore this global platform helps to create international awareness for issues of Sustainable Development and helps to give a voice to those ones who often have no voice when it comes to global decision making.

Below you find an overview about the social projects that are run or supported by Solar Net:
