The 100 Faces of Hope recognition celebrates Mwayi Kampesi as one of the leaders bringing optimism and action to clean cooking. It is a fitting honour for a founder whose work with Planet Green Africa is rooted in practical hope: cleaner kitchens, protected forests and new livelihoods.
PGA’s contribution is tangible. Through Nyasa Moto, the team turns biomass waste into cooking fuel that can reduce dependence on charcoal and firewood while supporting women-led distribution networks.
This recognition sits alongside a growing list of moments that show the strength of PGA’s mission. It reminds readers that clean cooking progress is made by people who keep building, testing and serving their communities.
