Policy - Framing Priority Issues
REN21 convenes and engages key leaders and stakeholders in national legislation and international processes. REN21 and its participants encourage the inclusion of renewable energy matters in the deliberations of appropriate meetings and venues, and target relevant political processes, such as CSD 14 and 15, meetings of the G8, UNFCCC, and the MDG review by the UN General Assembly.

REN21 encourages political support for the strengthening of regulatory environments and market structures that lead to accelerating use of renewable energy in developed and developing countries and emerging economies, and to expanded access to public and private financing.

REN21 encourages countries to meet commitments to renewable energy (particularly in the Johannesburg Plan of Implementation and in the International Action Programme of the renewables 2004 conference) and helps document and report on progress.
