Notes
Suzan went back to the village to follow up on the smearing of the facilities and the construction of the firewood stands which was still a challenge to others. This time she wanted to focus on the homes of those who had already received the fuel efficient stoves and had started cooking on them. When she arrived, she was welcomed by some committee group leaders who were already at the meeting place. After explaining to them how the activity was going to be carried out, they got up and began visiting different homes and while on the way, Suzan observed that most members who had received the stoves were happily cooking on them and had constructed good strong firewood stands in their kitchens. Also their buildings were well smeared with mud especially their kitchens which was so interesting to see. The other members who had not received the stoves had gathered materials aside their kitchens which were going to be used for repairing their facilities such as dried logs for the firewood stands and the grass for kitchen roof repair. This was because the members eagerly wanted to get the stoves after watching how their fellow members were benefiting out of them. The group chairperson Faridah reported that more new members had joined the program and were willing to work hand in hand with the rest of the group during the program lessons which was so interesting. Kibo staff Suzan encouraged all the members to keep maintaining all their facilities and continue working together in all the program lessons. She thanked them for the good work carried out and wished them a happy stay.

30006 Namusita. Some members who had started cooking on their fuel efficient stoves, improved on all their facilities such as smearing all their buildings with colorful mud.
30009 Namusita. Some kitchens had big leakages from above whereby when it rains it can destroy the improved fuel efficient stoves as well as making the firewood wet. Kibo staff encouraged all the participants to see that they improved on all their facilities.
