Efficient cookstoves in Benin and Togo (ID: 103000000001746)

Description

This Program of Activity (PoA) seeks to encourage the use of efficient cook stoves in Benin and Togo. Biomass and heating wood are a major source of energy both in Benin and Togo. This results in significant pressure on the local forests especially in rural areas where the local populations depend on these forests for their everyday living needs. This energy efficient project which involves the dissemination of efficient cooking stoves will help reduce the consumption of wood as well as reducing carbon emissions.
