a- fight against desertification
b- restore the environment
c- reestablish plant coverage
d- convert soil
e- regulate the water regime

What was the triggering factor of this project? Edit

In the 2000s, through the UNSO/PNUD project, SEPA (the Executive Secretary for the Environment) developed activities, promoted improved stoves to effectively fight the desertification in Sahelian countries and had the goal to popularize improved household stoves.

The triggering factor is also to modernize households a little who from the beginning, have had to put three stones on the floor to make a stove.

Finally, the project wants to encourage the population to use of butane gas.

What is the business model of this project? Edit

The project’s business model is to first reduce the higher price of butane gas which is known to be expensive. If improved gas is popularized, the population can buy it at a cheaper price and also fight to reduce the unemployment rate by creating jobs.
