Uruguay is actively shaping a sustainable future through three innovative projects supported by the European Union. First, the National Program for the Promotion of Electric Urban Mobility goes beyond just transitioning to electric vehicles; it involves educational and awareness initiatives, the establishment of charging stations, and incentives for purchasing electric cars. With 98% of our energy coming from renewables, the program aims to cut down on CO2 emissions and enhance air quality.

In the area of water resources management, support is provided to a project that seeks the adoption of technologies and models for integrated water management as an adaptation to climate change in Uruguay's main source of drinking water, the Santa Lucia River basin.

In addition, the Sustainable Livestock Project seeks to foster public policies and best livestock farming practices in order to become resilient to the impacts of climate change.
