Estimated benefits over the project lifetime The project seeks to improve public health in the host countries by distributing cookstoves across approximately 7.5 million households . The program will distribute high efficiency ICS to end-users, addressing several critical public health challenges. Currently, many families cook their meals over unimproved stoves utilizing biomass. This is a leading cause of upper respiratory disease caused in part by Indoor air pollution from smoke released by the burning of biomass in these inefficient cookstoves
