Solar Cookers International (SCI) is increasing solar cooking in Kakuma Refugee Camp, Kenya to mitigate climate change. 90% of the population in Kenya uses polluting fuels for cooking. Because women and girls commonly face higher risks and greater burdens from cooking over open fires, SCI empowers women and girls to implement the equitable climate change solution of solar cooking. 1,260 people have currently been directly impacted by this solar cooking initiative and numerous benefits experienced, including improved health and safety, and increased time and income generation possibilities.
