Cooking energy emancipation for women, children and mother nature: People-centered woodfuel and cleaner cooking innovations

Cooking energy emancipation for women, children and mother nature: People-centered woodfuel and cleaner cooking innovations
This factsheet illustrates how we are changing lives and improving drylands through capacity development on sustainable household woodfuel systems. Our ideas and concepts merit catching on as a movement. Our systems thinking and theory of change address how to correct the lack of sustainability and inefficiencies along the entire supply and consumption chain while even recovering resources in the form of energy and biochar.
