Clean Cooking Activities
JWF promotes the use of clean, efficient, affordable and safe cooking solutions for women in rural and urban areas of Kenya. Why?

The resulting household air pollution not only poses multiple chronic health risks and more than 4 million premature deaths each year, it also contributes to climate change and deforestation
