Sheroes Climate Action
Our project addresses the vulnerability of rural Nigerian communities and the globe to deforestation driven climate change vulnerability and harmful black carbon emissions caused by the heavy reliance on firewood for cooking.
About
Through the distribution of clean bio-stoves fueled by renewable fuels, we aim to reduce deforestation by 35%, lower harmful emissions by 25%, protect women health by 25% and build climate resilience, thereby protecting natural resources, and delivering immediate climate and health benefits.
