In rural Africa...Girls must walk many miles in search of firewood, a dangerous journey that often forces them to miss school.

At Eco-fuel Africa, we empower communities in Africa to use our tailor-made technology, helping them convert locally sourced farm and municipal waste into clean cooking fuel and organic fertilizer. This helps to solve a myriad issues; it slows the rate of deforestation by reducing the dependency on fuel-wood, reduces indoor air pollution by substituting smoky wood with cleaner-burning fuel, improves educational opportunities among girls and women by eliminating the need to search for wood, and reduces malnutrition by providing farmers with access to organic fertilizer.
