CLEAN AND IMPROVED COOKING IN SUB-SAHARAN AFRICA November 2014 Second edition A Landscape Report ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This report was commissioned by the World Bank’s Energy & Extractives Practice (GEEDR), with the support of the Energy Sector Management Assistance Program (ESMAP) and the Africa Renewable Energy Access Program (AFREA). The project team comprised Srilata Kammila, Jan Kappen, Dana Rysankova, Besnik Hyseni, and Venkata Ramana Putti. The report relied on inputs from a wide cross-section of World Bank staff, numerous industry experts, manufacturers, distributors, policy makers, and nongovernmental organizations, including interviews with more than one hundred players in the clean and improved cooking energy sector in Africa and globally. Critical advisory/technical inputs have been provided by World Bank colleagues Koffi Ekouevi, Richard Hosier, Klas Sander, Masami Kojima, Laurent Durix, Yabei Zhang, Sudeshna Ghosh Banerjee, Mikul Bhatia, Joy Clancy, Christophe de Gouvello, and Sameer Akbar; Lasse Ringius, Luiz Maurer, and Pepukaye Bardouille from IFC; and Radha Muthiah, Sumi Mehta, Leslie Cordes, Ranyee Chiang, and Sean Bartlett from the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves. The final draft was reviewed by Koffi Ekouevi, Laurent Durix, Masami Kojima, and Klas Sander. Meike Van Ginneken, Practice Manager (West and Central Africa), provided valuable guidance. Dalberg Global Development Advisors (www.dalberg.com) acted as the consultants for the report.

  • A General Checklist for Camping
    A General Checklist for Camping Many people think of three kinds of camping: Cabin "camping", tent (site) camping, and backpacking. The following list pertains to all kinds of camping except where indicated. For backpacking, the rule is the lighter and smaller the better. Generally for all camping you should pack everything you think you need, then put half of it back. By no stretch of the imagination is this list the definitive and most complete list available, but, it is a good list that should help jog your memory and give you a better chance to remember most everything you should need on a camping trip. • Bedding • Blankets (include extras for cold weather camping) • Cot/Air Mattress (leave the cot home for backpacking) • Ground cloth for tent camping (goes underneath sleeping bag) • Pillow (optional) • Sleeping bags • Sheets to line sleeping bags (particularly nice if your sleeping bag is made out of a material which promotes sweating). (non-backpacking only; for backpacking you should bring a sleeping bag appropriate to the terrain and time of year) • Clothing/Apparel usually needed • Belt(s) or suspenders • Pants (avoid blue jeans if there's a chance you'll be camping in rainy country) • Boots-- Hiking and/or mud variety • Spare pair of glasses/contacts (if you wear 'em)-- Athletic and/or spare • Sneakers/tennis shoes • Sunglasses • Sweaters/sweatshirts • Underwear • Warm Weather Clothing/Apparel • Hats--ball caps, wide-brim hats, etc. for warm weather • Kleenex/Handkerchiefs • Rain Panchos/Rain Suit • Shorts/Bermudas • Lightweight shirts; T-shirts • Swim gear (Bathing suit, goggles, sunscreen, towels; for more conventional campgrounds rather than backpacking) • Cold Weather Clothing/Apparel • Coat or similar (bring a couple of lighter coats and sweatshirts so that you can "layer" if the temperature drops) • Down Vest (for cold climes) • Fatigue Jacket • Hooded coat • Gloves or mittens for cold weather only • Old slippers or equivalent for cabin camping • Hats-- cover-the-ears variety for cold weather (e.g.

  • Rocket Stoves for Sub Saharan Africa
    Rocket Stoves for Sub Saharan Africa http://www.repp.org/discussiongroups/resources/stoves/Scott/subsahar... Rocket Stoves in Sub-Saharan Africa Peter Scott, Aprovecho, October 18, 2004 Dear Stovers Since Aug 2003, my partner, Jayme Vineyard, and I have been working with GTZ ProBEC (Program for Biomass Energy Conservation) and EAP (Energy Advisory Project) as well as World Food Program and innumerable small businesses to introduce the Rocket Stove principle to a number of countries in Sub-Saharan Africa (Uganda, Kenya, Lesotho, Mozambique, Malawi, and Zambia). It has been a very productive year. When we arrived there were no rocket stoves in Africa but since our arrival we have applied the Rocket stove principle to at least 15 new cooking devices. We have also made real progress on the material question. After many experiments with a number of different materials we have come closer to the ideal insulative material for the rocket stove combustion chamber. At this point it appears that our clay/saw/dust grog bricks in Malawi our best bet, followed by vermiculite binder/vermiculite bricks, and then cut pumice blocks. Please note we no longer recommend vermiculite / Portland cement as a rocket stove liner except if it can be lined with a durable, refractory ,abrasion resistant liner. More testing is needed before it can be recommended wholeheartedly. Of the 15 new designs, four have been institutional rocket stoves for World Food Program . 110 stoves have been ordered in Malawi with an expected order of 750; 50 stoves have been ordered for Lesotho WFP with and expected order of 2500 stoves; and 10 stoves have been ordered for WFP Mozambique.

  • Food Safety While Hiking, Camping & Boating
    Food Safety While Hiking, Camping & Boating Outdoor activities are popular with Americans nationwide. The fresh air and exercise revives the spirit and the mind. Hiking, camping, and boating are good activities for active people and families, and in some parts of the country you can enjoy the outdoors for 2 or 3 seasons. In many cases, these activities last all day and involve preparing at least one meal. If the food is not handled correctly, foodborne illness can be an unwelcome souvenir. • Food Safety While Hiking & Camping • "Keep Hot Foods Hot & Cold Foods Cold" • Hot or Cold? • "Keep Everything Clean" • Safe Drinking Water • What Foods to Bring? • Cooking at the Campsite • Use a Food Thermometer • Keeping Cold • Cleanup • Food Safety While Boating • Keep Your Cooler Cool • Keep Cold Foods Cold • Seafood • Cleanup • General Rules for Outdoor Food Safety Food Safety While Hiking & Camping Sometimes you just have to get out and walk around in the solitude and beauty of our country. You may want to hike for just a few hours, or you may want to camp for a few days. One meal and some snacks are all that's needed for a short hike. Planning meals for a longer hike or camping trip requires more thought. You have to choose foods that are light enough to carry in a backpack and that can be transported safely.

The stove design drew heavily upon existing, open source knowledge regarding top light updraft wood fired stoves and suggestions from on the ground practitioners in South Africa. Implementation followed the model of community engagement that values community assets and adheres to a platform of mutual respect and reciprocity as part of the relationship. The more than two year project evolved out of a more than a decade long series of personal, professional and institutional partnership between the students, faculty and community members from the University of Venda in South Africa and the University of Virginia in the U.S. The article not only details the design and

  • Component C – Review of African Lessons for Scaling Up
    Ethanol as a Household Fuel in Madagascar Component C FINAL REPORT Review of Sub-Saharan Africa Experience in Scaling- up Household Energy Interventions March 2011 Acknowledgements This report was produced by a number of individuals and organisations, a full list of key informants can be found on page 99. The main authors of this report were Liz Bates, Kirstie Jagoe and Jon Rouse. Inputs were also received from Ewan Bloomfield, Steven Hunt and Carla Fox representing Practical Action Consulting. i Executive Summary Ethanol is a fuel of increasing interest to the development community. However, if it is to be adopted on a large scale, comparisons need to be made against other fuels and technologies. At the same time, lessons learnt in disseminating biomass and charcoal technologies can provide useful lessons in its dissemination. Review of programs, technologies and approaches Since the early 1980s there have been wide-ranging international and national strategies to address energy issues in African households. A range of considerations have driven household cooking interventions in differing proportions and with varying degrees of overlap. These concerns comprise; the health impacts of smoke inhalation, particularly on women and children, issues around deforestation and desertification linked with consumption of fuelwood, the impact of burning of fuelwood and its impact on greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) contributing to climate change, and the drudgery, time lost and danger of women collecting firewood and its cyclical contribution to
