WE SEEK EXPERTISE ON BIOGAS INSTALLATIONS SUITABLE FOR POOR COMMUNITIES
This proposal seeks to accomplish the following objectives:
Piloting Diverse Biogas Installations: This research will initiate various biogas installations within an artisanal fishing community in Benin.
Randomized Control Trial for Enhanced Adoption: A randomized control trial will be conducted to optimize the adoption, usage, and maintenance of the most suitable biogas system identified in the pilot phase.
Replication: The research will be replicated among artisanal fishing communities in the Democratic Republic of Congo to validate the findings' applicability in diverse contexts.
Scaling Up: Finally, the proposal will outline strategies for scaling up the successful findings to benefit a broader population.
