Clean Cooking Activities

Bethany Project implements programs on recognizing, reducing and redistributing unpaid care work done by women and girls. Clean cook stoves have been found to reduce time spent on unpaid care work. Since these stoves use twigs they reduce consumption of wood resulting in environmental protection. Time saved by women is used for income generation. Bethany Project working with communities in humanitarian settings has development a "tsotso" (twig) stove used by communities affected by droughts and floods.
