Caritas Kabale seeks to enhance the role of women in development through Functional Adult Literacy (FAL). In order to build the capacity of women, vulnerable households are provided with water jars/tanks for harvesting rain water which they use for home consumption during drought.
They are also provided with improved fuel/energy saving cooking stoves that reduce the amount of smoke in the kitchen. These stoves are aimed at reducing tree cutting as well as reduce on the risk of contracting respiratory/eye complications by the women due to the exposure to too much smoke while cooking.
