Our evaluation of #schools converting to #cleancooking comprises #airpolllution monitoring of school kitchens, catering staff and learners. Students in #Rwanda are eager to wear our measuring equipment and to learn about the health damaging effects of kitchen smoke.
CLEAN-Air Africa has now trained 2,500 instructors across Kenya. These instructors will go on to train 120,000 CHWs, with the aim of reaching Kenya’s entire population.
Watch the latest @CLEANAirAfrica documentary which examines the hidden burden of deaths and ill health resulting from exposure to carbon monoxide from charcoal and other solid fuels in African homes.
