Grace Magney demonstrates solar cooking in Afghanistan
The purpose of the project is to supply subsidized solar cookers as an affordable solution for middle- and lower-income families. The project is to assemble and distribute 2,000 solar cookers to families in Afghanistan during 2006. One thousand will be the SOS SPORT Solar Ovens and 1,000 will be panel cookers. The cookers will be subsidized so that most families will be able to afford either. The materials for making the ovens will be imported and Afghans will be trained to assemble and demonstrate solar cooking.
In the village of Qalai Badar Khan, just south of Kabul, Global Hope Network, distributed 28 K-14 parabolic cookers in 2003. Every family is using theirs after three years.
