Fuel Efficient Cookers

These simple, but effective cookers are manufactured locally in a variety of sizes (typically with 15-20 Litre cooking pots). They reduce the amount of wood required to cook a meal for a large group of people by 50-60%.

Beneficial effects include:

• reduced greenhouse gas emissions
• reduced smoke in schools (reduced respiratory disease – particularly among women and children)
• reduced time required by students and women to gather wood for cooking
