About this project

The primary objective of the programme is the replacement of traditional stoves and three stone fires for cooking in rural households in Ethiopia. For this purpose, at least two types of efficient stoves are distributed, including Mirt stoves and Tikikil stoves. Mirt stoves are specifically made for injera baking for which over 50% of firewood is used in Ethiopian households.Tikikil stoves are suitable for the other cooking tasks like preparation of sauces, coffee etc.The programme is coordinated by the World Food Program (WFP), the Ministry of Agriculture, the environmental Protection Agency and the Ministry of Water and Energy, with support of GIZ and other institutions. Distribution of efficient stoves on the local level will be organized by staff of the Ministry of Agriculture.
