Sustainable Development Goals
In addition to delivering emissions reductions to help take urgent action to combat climate change (SDG 13), the project delivers a number of other sustainable development benefits including:
- Good Health and Well-being: Indoor air pollution is reduced, providing significant health benefits for the household members who are most frequently exposed.
- No Poverty: The Basa Magogo technique reduces cooking time by 50 minutes compared to conventional heating methods. This allows women in particular to spend more time on other income-generating activities. In addition, there is also a savings of 300kg of coal per year which is a fuel spending reduction for the household.
- Quality Education: 110,000 trainings have been provided to people about the benefits of reduced coal consumption and this new technique.
- Decent Work and Economic Growth: In 2009, 35 local people were employed by the project. They provide employment to area leaders, team leaders, demonstrators and survey field workers in every location that the activity takes place.
