Supporting 136 Women in the Kitchen

The year 2023 is coming to an end. And this is the time when we compile the vary many indicators we have collected from our 105 participating schools during the year. We are closing our monitoring period, which includes the whole of 2023.

We like to share some of those figures that represent the impact Simoshi’s Project Activity registered with The Gold Standard has had during the year. When it comes to SDG5 Gender Equality, we are proud to say we have trained 136 women in all school kitchens when moving away from using traditional 3-stone fires to the institutional improved cook stoves (IICS).

This training includes numerous sessions throughout the year, where we teach the cooks how to effectively use their new IICS while achieving a clean kitchen environment, but also listening to their concerns and suggestions. Because when we collaborate, we achieve the best results.
