Nicaragua Cookstove & Reforestation Programme (with Proleña)
Trees, Water & People has partnered with Nicaraguan organisation Proleña since 2000 to plant trees, design, manufacture and distribute clean cookstoves, and promote renewable energy and resource efficiency, operating a stove manufacturing facility in Managua alongside reforestation work.
Inside the project
The programme's purpose is to plant trees, design, manufacture, and distribute clean cookstoves, and promote renewable energy and resource efficiency.
Its own materials cite 3,795,504 trees planted, four tree nurseries established, and 1,500 coffee farmers transitioned to spice agroforestry; no carbon-registry certification was found for the cookstove side.
Objectives
