Sustainable energy adult education review

This section is the Part Three of the "Adult Education Review. " It is part of the preparation of INFORSE's work on adult reaming and environment in preparation for the UNESCO International Conference. (see article on page no. 4). The Part One and Two of this section appeared in Sustainable Energy News no. 15 and no. 16. In these issues we had advertisements from 6-5 centers. In this May issue, we have one advertisement and we provide a contact list to all of those centers which have a central role in the field and we got information about them. The green colour highlights those centers, which advertised before.
