The Service Learning project presented here is part of the H2020-Cooltorise project, aimed at raising awareness of the problem of summer energy poverty in southern European countries and reducing the cooling demands of the vulnerable population. In the first year of the project, more than 60 architecture students from different Technical Schools of the Community of Madrid have had the opportunity to carry out workshops on optimization of energy bills, heat culture and climate adaptation at different scales, as well as an intervention for the improvement of urban microclimate. The results of the first year pay value the figure of the SEPAs, or Summer Energy Poverty Agents, a technical and accompanying figure that encourages learning among participants and volunteers.
