Biogas for clean cooking, nutritious food, and climate change mitigation: Voices of women from grassroots
Biogas can provide rural communities with clean, affordable energy for cooking and lighting while improving health by reducing indoor air pollution. It can also enhance livelihoods by saving time, lowering fuel costs, and producing organic fertilizer that boosts agricultural productivity.
In rural India, the Self Employed Women’s Association (SEWA), is promoting biogas as a clean, affordable, and sustainable energy solution for rural households, especially among women engaged in agriculture and animal husbandry.
Join us for an inspiring webinar on Tuesday 20 May 12:00-13:00 CEST. Grassroots women willshare how biogas is transforming their villages – boosting food security, protecting health and greening their communities. Hear firsthand stories of success, smart strategies for introducing anaerobic digesters, and honest reflections on the challenges that still remain.
This webinar is part of the 2025 Global Bioenergy Partnership (GBEP) webinar series, as part of the thematic area ‘Biogas and biomethane’. It is organized by FAO in the context of the Global Bioenergy Partnership’s programme of work.
