Introducing the first-ever affordable commercial prepay #BioGas from livestock waste as alternative clean cooking to end #CharCoal use in #Somalia#SDG3#SDG7
Check us out, we were featured on @dwnews highlighting our innovative local solution to address food security, and lack of access to clean cooking through #biogas production while creating jobs for internally displaced women in Somalia @USAID@WFPSomalia https://t.co/ukFftSyPcQ
@JikoBioGas is a clean energy project I started in Jowhar, Somalia 5 years ago. It converts animal waste into clean cooking fuel and fertilizer. The project aims to help displaced women in Jowhar Hirshabelle by eliminating the need to gather firewood, reducing their risk of sexual violence and respotory diseases. The project also creates job opportunities through selling the fertilizers produced. While the project is expensive, I hope that smart NGOs will invest in these tangible projects. We have similar project in Mogadishu area.

Somebody said clean biogas is not powerful enough for cooking- well here is evidence this family Mogadishu is getting free biogas from daily kitchen waste vs depending on expensive imported LPG😁

Instead of distributing Hygiene kits and wasting money on endless assessments. NGOs and UN should consider investing this sustainable and live changing solution. #Biogas#Somalia@unicefsomalia@WFPSomalia@UNDPSomalia
