Healthy and Safe Kitchens 
Notes
Suzan went to the village to follow up on the stove usage and the construction of the firewood storages in the kitchens. When she arrived, she found six committee group leaders whom she explained the purpose of the visit that day and together they first went to the upper section of the village because most members had began cooking on their fuel efficient stoves. During the process, Suzan found the women happily cooking on their new stoves in their neatly smeared kitchens. Agnes one of the active participants reported that she enjoys cooking on her new stove because it saves firewood yet it cooks food so fast.
