This project will produce the following outputs:
1. Working paper on Gender and RRR for energy based on case studies written by people involved in some current RRR work using materials from different waste streams (agro-waste, wood waste, municipal waste, fecal waste, …) to give better understanding on what is going on and areas for further work.
Project leader will develop guidelines for writing of the case studies, review the case studies and write and co-author some of the case studies.
2. Proposal on RRR for energy aimed at scaling up work by community groups which draws on experiences in Ghana.
3. CapVal work.
