Our Experience And Interest In The Four PCIA Central Focus Areas

Social/Cultural barriers to using traditional fuels and stoves:

daily we face how traditional fuels and stoves could damage people. we work in very poor and low-technology-skilling areas.


Market development for improved cooking technologies:

at the present moment, there is a quite big possibility to improve market development for improved stoves in those areas in which we work


Technology standardization for cooking, heating and ventilation:

it's a new challenge for us, so we decide to cooperate with you so to improve our efficacy in our health projects


Indoor air pollution exposure and health monitoring:

we are specialised in data collection at heatlh facilities level, and we certainly know how indoor air pollution has a bad influence on people's health
