Community Cooker Foundation
Community Cooker Foundation is an initiative by Planning Systems Services Ltd. in Nairobi, Kenya, established in 2010, with the goal of using the Community Cooker, a simple stove designed to turn rubbish into safe, clean and cheap energy, to transform Nairobi's largest slum, Kibera.
== Establishment ==
In the early 1990s, Jim Archer (Chairman of Planning Systems Ltd. and Planning Project Management Ltd.) recognized rubbish as a never ending resource for the production of energy if processed responsibly. With Mumo Musuva (Managing Director of Planning Systems Services Ltd.) he began to develop designs for a very simple, inexpensive rubbish burner which could also serve as a stove for cooking.
With initial seed capital of USD $10,000 through UNEP and coupled with funding from other institutions, the first prototype model of the Community Cooker was constructed in 2008 in one of Africa’s largest slums, Kibera. There are currently 3 Community Cookers in low income areas in Kenya (including Kibera) and one at Planning Systems used for Research and Development purposes.
In November 2010 the Community Cooker Foundation was created. The Foundation now consists of a board of Trustee’s, a secretariat and a committee who make decisions about future Community Cooker developments. The Foundation also manages a wide range of volunteers, who assist in promoting the Community Cooker.〔"http://www.communitycooker.or.ke/about.html"〕
