Description
This project will distribute approximately 20,000 improved stoves to households in the
targeted area, which will reduce demand for firewood - as well as reduce indoor air pollution. The time taken to collect firewood in the dry season and household expenditure on firewood during the wet season will also be reduced.
The project will be located throughout 23 sub-locations in Msambweni and Kubo divisions in Kwale District, Coast Province.
This project, in addition to reducing greenhouse gas emissions, will provide the
following co-benefits:
- Reduced deforestation and degradation of surrounding forests
- Reduced soil erosion and nutrient loss
- Reduced risk of flooding
- Reduced poverty, as the efficient wood stove reduces annual expenditure on cooking fuels
- Reduced adverse health effects associated with indoor air pollution
- Reduced cooking and wood collection time; householders can spend more time on other household tasks, as well as schooling and supervising children
- Reduced exposure of the firewood collectors (mainly women) to hazards in the deep forest (sexual assault and animal attacks)
Reduced burns and injuries from cooking
