The organization has also introduced biogas and energy saving stoves in rural communities in order to reduce dependency on forest resources as a sole source of energy. environmental clubs were established. In these clubs students organize debates each Monday afternoon to discuss environmental challenges including those related to soil erosion, deforestation and desertification.
In 2017 this project won the UNEP Energy Globe Award.
