Smoked fish represents a flourishing activity for women living in Attécoubé (a commune of Abidjan) and Yopougon Kouté (a village located on the bank of the lagoon), and generally in Côte d'Ivoire. It is an activity which also requires a lot of firewood leading to the emission of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.
The project of promotion of improved ovens? technology will contribute to reduce the greenhouse gas, and promote the use of the thrifty energy technologies, at a small scale level although it is a community action.
