Forum Synergies is a European non-profit organisation. Since 1994, this network of engaged citizens and associations has gathered rich and varied experience in sustainable practices, mainly in rural areas. Trying out the best ways to save resources and energy in local communities, combining the intelligent use of modern technologies with traditional know how, and sharing its successes and weaknesses throughout Europe, have given Forum Synergies faith in getting involved in political decision-making.
