GS1340 - Efficient cookstoves in Burkina Faso - tiipaalga F3PA cookstoves in Ganzourgou and Oubritenga - VPA-38

The continuous degradation of natural resources (soil, vegetation, water resources, etc.) in the Plateau-Central region of Burkina Faso leads to an increase in household poverty and food insecurity. Based on its experience and achievements with energy-efficient cookstoves, Association tiipaalga is aiming to promote the distribution of the 3 stones improved cookstoves or "F3PA" around the rural municipalities of the provinces of Oubritenga and Ganzourgou in the Plateau-Central region. This micro-scale VPA is part of a group of 10 VPA’s aiming to contribute to mitigating the effects of climate change and reducing poverty among rural households by promoting the use of the F3PA improved cookstoves in the project intervention area. The F3PA wood stoves will replace the traditional open-fire three-stone cooking method whilst respecting the local three-stone cooking culture.
