Empowering Rural Women through access to renewable energy via biodigesters project

Funded by UNDP, this project introduces biodigesters in rural Tajikistan to provide clean cooking energy, reducing the time women spend collecting dung fuel. It empowers them to focus on education or livelihoods, builds local capacity for maintenance, and supports policy advocacy for biogas through evidence and financing solutions.
