The poor villagers in Charkent have no access to electricity and they are burning oil for lighting their homes which produces very harmful gases especially in cold winter when all the doors and windows are closed. The accumulation of the harmful gases produced by burning oils causes respiratory and eyes problems especially for children when they are studying in front of the light.
To improve the health of women and children and to improve environment for the women to work (sewing clothes, embroidering) and children to study, we provided each head of the women and men’s village groups with a Low-Cost Solar Light Unit.
We don't give them money, but they spend a lot of time on this work when they could be growing their crops.
We also have rewarded the Safe Motherhood Groups with the sewing machines and also we are going to reward them the chickens to help them with the livelihoods.
