Water and Energy for Sustainable Development Programme of Activities
Gold Standard · GS5382 · Malawi
About this project
This project aims to improve access to both improved cookstoves and safe drinking water across 6 least developed countries in Africa and Asia, in which Concern Universal operates as an International NGO.The primary purpose therefore of this Small Scale PoA is to reduce GHG emissions from the combustion of non-renewable biomass, while simultaneously contributing to the wider sustainable development of households in developing countries. This will be achieved by increasing access to, and uptake of, improved cookstoves; as well as increasing access to potable water from community and institutional level boreholes (reducing the need to boil water as a means of purification).
