The Cookstove Project

Over 2.1 billion people rely on open fires to cook for their families, unintentionally polluting their homes and the environment. This household air pollution kills an estimated 2.9 million people per year, mostly women and children.

In Uganda and Nepal, The Cookstove Project changes people’s lives by constructing low-cost clean burning cookstoves that use less wood and improve the quality of air in the home. In addition, the stove has a positive impact in climate change and slows the process of deforestation.
