Our Experience And Interest In The Four PCIA Central Focus Areas

Social/Cultural barriers to using traditional fuels and stoves:

The areas that we work in do not have any socio/cultural bariers for using traditional fuels. They basically use the traditional fuel as it is easily available and free.


Market development for improved cooking technologies:

We are working for promotion and commercialization of decentralised waste water treatment technologies in public private partnerships. We are planning to partner with private sector, individual and government agencies to buy green compost produced by agricultural waste.


Technology standardization for cooking, heating and ventilation:

None


Indoor air pollution exposure and health monitoring:

None

Relevant Publications or Studies

Our Contribution to the Partnership

We would like to participate in workshops/trainings for the mission. We are also interested in promoting and awareness generation programs for biogas technologies and other technologies for reduction of indoor air polution.
