Project Description

The aim of this Pilot is to show that it is practical and economically attractive for selected rural villages and households outside 20km of Lilongwe to sustainably produce, transport and sell firewood to meet the urban firewood market demand at commercially acceptable prices from their own cultivated woodlots. Villages within 20 km of an urban center will always be assumed to focus on food production. So this band just outside of it that perimeter should be considered as having potential for wood production.
