Briquettes Production Training Manual - Uganda

 

The fuel briquettes manual aims to equip young people and the informal sector in general with knowledge of fuel briquettes making from waste and their marketing. This manual has been tested against communities operating through the structure of communal cooperatives in Uganda – the CBS PEWOSA – where members, including young people,

were trained to convert waste into briquettes and invest in enterprise-driven production. They then invested in expanding production through the use of briquettes machines. The manual answers the expectations of trainees, and at the end of the training, trainees are expected to have: Learned the idea of making fuel briquettes and, as a climate action viable enterprise, have gained a new technology for application in their village savings and loans association groups, have learned how to save the environment and reduce deforestation and work as a team, cooperate around the solution of fuel briquettes machines in their VSLAs, have the knowledge to turn waste into money, have information on briquettes marketing to the community.
