Kongoussi, Burkina Faso
Place a cooking pot upside down on the ground and draw around it. Then take a termite mound, some straw, and donkey dung to obtain the refractory material for an ecological stove. In Kongoussi in Burkina Faso, the Tiipaalga association teaches women how to build these fuel-efficient wood-burning stoves, which are less polluting and improve living conditions. This is just one idea amongst many initiatives supported locally by Hermès through the Livelihoods fund.
