Description

Description Public-private parntership hosted by UN Foundation of government, IO, NGO and private sector organisations aiming to help overcome the market barriers that currently impede the production, deployment, and use of clean cook stoves in the developing world. The Alliance relies on grants and investments from governments, corporations, foundations, civil society, investors, and individuals to support its work to spur the adoption of clean cookstoves and fuels during Phase II (2015-2017). Donor governments currently provide the largest share of the Alliance’s annual program funding, however foundations and the private sector represent a growing share of the Initiative’s grant and investment resources. In addition, non-governmental organizations, the United Nations, multilateral agencies, and the private sector also play a major role in supporting the Alliance’s advocacy, research, governance, and implementation efforts.
Objectives The Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves seeks to mobilize high-level national and donor commitments toward the goal of universal adoption of clean cookstoves and fuels. Its ambitious but achievable 10-year goal is to foster the adoption of clean cookstoves and fuels in 100 million households by 2020.

The Alliance and its partners are working to establish a thriving global market for clean cooking solutions by addressing the market barriers that impede the production, deployment, and use of clean and efficient cookstoves and fuels in developing countries. By providing a roadmap for concerted action and measurable results that can change the lives of nearly three billion people around the world. Core competencies include: Catalyzing the Sector and Brokering Partnerships – convene stakeholders around a central strategy for addressing the issue and foster connections among diverse constituencies; - Mobilizing Resources – Attract new partners, expertise, and funding to the sector; - Increasing Investments – Build capacity of the sector to be ‘investment ready’, and raise the profile of the issue within the investment community; - Championing the Sector and Advocating for Change – Advance clean cooking solutions on national and international agendas, and advocate for national and local governments to create a favorable policy and regulatory environment; - Promoting International Standards and Strengthening Testing Centers – Help develop and implement emissions, efficiency, and safety standards for cookstoves and build capacity within national and regional knowledge and testing centers; - Coordinating Sector Knowledge and Promoting Research in the Sector – Commission, collect, and coordinate research within the sector and related fields to build the evidence base for policies and programs that promote cleaner and more efficient cookstove technologies and fuels.
