Due to economic reasons during the COVID restrictions, Barbra’s mother was forced to reduce the family meals from three to one per day. As Uganda went into COVID-lockdowns, charcoal and firewood, which are the most used cooking methods, became expensive. Cooking fuels is also one of the main reasons for deforestation in Uganda, as the population is growing rapidly, with almost five children per family on average, the demand is only getting higher. Barbra founded “Smart Kitchen” to offer affordable clean energy briquettes as an alternative to charcoal. The briquettes produce less smoke, are eco-friendly, burn longer than traditional charcoal, and are made from organic and agricultural waste.
