World Vision Ghana has partnered with Vivo Energy Ghana to launch a groundbreaking project aimed at reducing carbon emissions and improving health outcomes, particularly for women in rural areas. The initiative, known as the Eco-Flame Project,  will introduce energy-efficient cookstoves to women in the East Gonja District of the Savannah Region.

The Eco-Flame project is set to train over 200 women in the use of eco-friendly cooking methods, contributing significantly  to environmental sustainability, economic savings, and improved health for the people of East Gonja. As a leader in the energy sector, Vivo Energy Ghana recognises the urgent need to address carbon emissions and reduce our carbon footprint. Their unwavering commitment to partner with World Vision Ghana supports vulnerable children and helps restore our vegetation cover.

Reducing carbon emissions is critical to combating climate change, and these energy-saving stoves significantly reduce indoor air pollution, improving the health of women and families. Empowering rural communities with sustainable solutions promotes long-term growth and resilience. 

By embracing energy-efficient technologies and sustainable practices, we can create a healthier environment and a brighter future for all. Let's commit to reducing our carbon footprint and promoting environmental sustainability for generations to come.

Join us in celebrating this partnership and the positive change it brings. Together, we can go green and clean!
