This is a solar cooker workshop in Nyala, Darfur. As the women look for firewood around the displacement camps they face the danger of rape and abduction. Solar cooking offers an alternative to using firewood for cooking.

  • This is the difficulty with any new technology. Along with others, we have been at this for a few years in Darfur and there is some positive uptake. The fighting and war makes it more difficult .

  • They work well. I have one here in Indiana I made. Had to glue two together to make it the right size. Problem is that it is not very stable in the wind--very flexable but workable.

    I wonder how well the car sun-shades could be substituted?
