Hello our friends,
The Darfur Women Network,DWN, wishes you Happyy Holidays!
In 2017, we made extreme changes that impacted the survivors of the Darfur genocide in the refugee camp. The Solar Panel Project, our innovative project, improved the refugee’s lives.
Darfur Women Network (DWN) served 13 community centers by providing solar panels to replace firewood light for multiple purposes.
DWN provided waterproof sheets to cover the roofs made from local materials to ensure the continuation of services during the rainy season.
DWN provided rugs to sit on instead of sand.
DWN has trained 26 refugees on the upkeep of the community center for multiple purposes.

DWN is thinking about using solar energy for cooking in the refugee camp during the summer. DWN needs practical solar cookers that can be appropriate for our cultural and/or traditional food. Any ideas are valuable to us and if there are any solar energy companies that share the same mission, please provide their information to DWN.
