Empowering women and girls through solar cooking Around the world, cooking-related tasks often fall primarily to women and girls. In homes dependent on polluting fuels (wood, dung, charcoal) for cooking, women and girls are exposed to devastating and avoidable smoke-related health risks. Where women are tasked with collecting firewood, they are often exposed to injury and violence. Solar cookers offer women the freedom to break free from this laborious chore with an affordable, sustainable solution. Solar cookers have no emissions and use free solar energy for cooking and water pasteurization.
