Improving health, economic and environmental conditions for local communities.
In Southern Ethiopia's Oromia region, daily life revolves around traditional stoves consuming vast amounts of firewood. This not only drains time and money but also saturates homes with persistent smoke, posing a health hazard for those responsible for cooking, especially women and girls. Additionally, it affects vulnerable groups like young children and the elderly who spend significant time near the fire.

This transformative project aims to revolutionise local kitchens by distributing 25,000 efficient stoves. With the potential to slash wood consumption by over 60%, these stoves bring a breath of fresh air, reducing harmful CO2 emissions significantly.
This project contributes concretely to addressing health concerns, environmental impact and economic well-being. Not only it reduces the amount of CO2 produced from cooking activities, the project is also a tangible step towards improving livelihoods. By cutting costs on charcoal, the project directly contributes to poverty reduction, creating a positive ripple effect in the community.
