Training All Kitchen Staff

We continue sharing the achievements of this year 2023 that now comes to an end, as part of our annual collection of the various indicators monitored from 105 supported schools, as they move away from traditional cooking practices.

818 training sessions

During 2023, Simoshi’s Project Officers conducted 818 training sessions in 105 school kitchens, following the “Kitchen Training Manual” and the “Firewood Best Practice Manual’, to ensure cooks enjoy a smooth transition when using the institutional improved stoves. This same support is provided every year, during a 10-year period, because we want to achieve not only firewood savings, but also a clean and sustainable kitchen environment. This involves a behavioural change and commitment from everyone in the kitchen responsible for preparing the children daily meals.
