Step Towards Reducing Indoor Air Pollution

The overall objectives of the project were to assess the impact of indoor air pollution from biomass fuel use among rural women and reduce exposure by creating awareness and introducing improved earthen stoves. However, the specific objectives are:

  • Increase awareness among biomass users by providing information on health benefits, encouraging modifying kitchen design and fuel usage behavior and thereby reducing pollution.
  • Introduced improved earthen cookstoves and evaluate their efficiency in fuel usage, reducing air pollution.
