President message

“In Madagascar, clean cooking is not just a question of technology: it is a question of health, dignity, equality, and the future.”
Given the environmental, health, and social challenges facing our country, the transition to clean cooking is no longer an option: it is now an urgent necessity to protect populations, preserve our natural resources, and ensure a sustainable future for generations to come. The Madagascar Clean Cooking Initiative works alongside committed stakeholders to promote sustainable solutions that improve families' lives, protect the environment, and support a green economy we can be proud of. Our strength lies in the diversity and expertise of our members, united around a common goal: to structure and develop an innovative and inclusive clean cooking sector capable of meeting the real needs of Malagasy communities. We move forward with the conviction that “we rise by lifting others,” and that progress only has meaning when it is shared by all.
