Our project addresses the lack of clean, affordable and sustainable energy sources for the over 2 million people in refugee settlements and host communities in Uganda, while increasing refugee and host households incomes by 940 CAD annually and reducing the need of subsidies by the UNHCR. Low income and lack of clean and affordable energy sources disproportionately affect women and children, who form up to 87% of refugees, while deforestation from firewood affects host communities.
