Globally, nearly 1 billion people have no access to electricity. In Uganda, 73% of the population is without electricity. People are forced to burn kerosene, wood and charcoal to meet their lighting and energy needs. These inefficient fuels lead to indoor air pollution that causes 2.6 million premature deaths worldwide each year, plus threats like house fires and burns.
Nearly 300 million kids cannot study after sunset, leaving them academically disadvantaged. And poorer households reliant on traditional fuels spend a relatively larger share of their total expenditure on energy.
All together, these factors perpetuate a vicious cycle of poverty . Together, we can change this.
