Summary
1. Empower people to make their own improved cookstove using only locally available materials 2. Teach bio-charcoal production from renewable sources 3. A commitment to plant trees to counteract deforestation. This is the core of our hands-on comprehensive community workshop approach. Our research shows: our model of improved cookstoves reduce the need for fuel up to 75%. Our goal: Every household in our villages (and beyond) uses improved cookstoves, ideally with locally made bio-charcoal.
