By Jean Marie Takouleu

The Modern Cooking Facility for Africa (MCFA) is announcing a new €16 million funding round. This second commitment will support access to environmentally-friendly cookstoves in several sub-Saharan African countries.

Access to clean cooking should accelerate in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Zambia and Zimbabwe over the coming months. In any case, this is the aim of the new funding round recently launched by the Modern Cooking Facility for Africa (MCFA), a mechanism managed by the Nordic Environment Finance Corporation (NEFCO).
