Clean Cooking Activities
Due to the use of 3-Stone fires in Malawi the deforestation is extremely fast proceeding. With more efficient cookstoves the community would benefit tremendously from the positiv footprint such as using less wood to decrease deforestation.
Due to the more efficient burning of the wood there also would be less health problems related with the smoke in the houses.
Partnership
Extending Hope could profit from the knowledge of the Global alliance for clean cookstoves and get financial support in the growth and implementation in Malawi for using more efficient cookstoves in the Ntcheu area.
Extending Hope is operating a local clinic in the Agabu Village, Ntcheu district and as well leading a primary school in Blantyre.
