| MADE IN KENYA | Adumu stoves run on biodiesel made from waste material

For a long time, learning institutions in Kenya have relied on wood fuel to prepare meals for their learners and staff. Continued reliance on wood fuel poses a risk to the environment, as trees are cut to provide this fuel. It is this risk that two Kenyan entrepreneurs sought to address when they founded Adumu Stoves, a venture that makes biodiesel cookstoves targeting learning institutions in the country. Edward Chweya tells us how these cookstoves have positively impacted some of the institutions that have adopted them.
