Between 2014 and 2016, a pilot project was executed to promote energy efficiency through the NAMA housing
retrofit. This project was carried out between the Mexican government and the German Cooperation for Sustainable
Development (GIZ). in Mexico. The exercise served to propose specific approaches for certain groups of the population,
by using energy efficiency to improve the conditions of Mexican families and showed the co-benefits that can
be obtained from monitoring awareness and communication activities. on climate change and saving energy and
water. The results of this pilot have served to verify that gender inequality in housing can be reduced by proposing
affirmative actions to vulnerable groups by providing access to information and technical assistance for the improvement
of their homes through energy efficiency.
