School-going children in Kenya continue to receive at least one meal per school day through a nationally owned set of school meal initiatives aimed at addressing key outcomes such as enrolment, retention and transition rates.
In implementing this, schools entirely rely on wood, charcoal and biomass fuels as the main source of energy in preparing the meals. Effects of this range from deforestation to harming health and high operational costs.
To address this, Eco Bora, a local venture, has developed clean cooking solutions targeting schools to cut costs and fight climate change.
