Description

The project aims to provide returning refugees and IDPs (returnees ) with a locally produced efficient or improved cookstove (ICS) as part of a package provided by aid agencies to returnees. The ICS distributed through this project will encourage returnees to replace the prevailing inefficient three-stone fire place or traditional cookstoves that are predominantly used across the region. The ICS provides for an efficient use of the thermal energy generated though the combustion of biomass while cooking and there is a more efficient transfer of this thermal energy to the cooking pot. There is thus a resultant reduction in both biomass consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.
