Empowering women. Protecting health. Restoring the planet.<\/h2>

In Uganda, over 90% of households use firewood or charcoal for cooking. This dependence fuels deforestation, increases carbon emissions and exposes families, especially women and children, to indoor smoke.<\/p>

Most rural women survive on less than $1 a day, with income opportunities tied to seasonal farming. Outside of the planting and harvest seasons, many families struggle to meet their basic needs.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n

Our Solution: Turning Waste into Wealth<\/h2>

Transforming agricultural waste such as maize cobs, groundnut husks, sorghum stalks and cassava peelings into carbonized briquettes.<\/p>

Training women at the Kulika Training Centre in waste carbonization and briquette making.<\/p>

Building skills in business and marketing for income generation.<\/p>

Raising health awareness and environmental conservation.<\/p>

Mixing carbon with local binders like cassava flour or molasses and pressing it into clean-burning briquettes.<\/p>

Every briquette made replaces a piece of charcoal, saving a tree, cleaning the air, and giving a woman a dignified income.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n

\u201cWith these briquettes, I earn money every week. I no longer wait for the farming season. I can pay for my children\u2019s school and buy soap and salt.\u201d<\/p>

This is more than a project. It\u2019s a movement for change, built by women, powered by innovation, and sustained by compassion.<\/p>
