Mwayi Kampesi’s Waislitz Global Citizen Award nomination recognised the courage and creativity behind her work with Planet Green Africa. It placed her clean cooking leadership within a wider global community of people solving urgent social and environmental problems.

The nomination celebrates more than an individual milestone. It reflects the promise of PGA’s model: affordable Nyasa Moto briquettes, women-led distribution and a cleaner energy pathway for communities that still rely heavily on charcoal and firewood.

For PGA, recognition like this helps carry Malawi’s clean cooking story to new audiences while keeping the focus on the households and entrepreneurs at the centre of the work.
