Binto - Senior Supervisor in Hagadera

*Most refugees living in Dadaab refugee camps have fled from Somalia as a result of the ongoing civil war.  There is little hope of returning home as the country is still embroiled in conflict and there is little opportunity for resettlement in Kenya.  Dadaab is currently home to approximately 300,000 refugees.*




My name is Binto, I have been living in Dadaab at the Hagadera refugee camp for 20 years now. In September 2007, when ILF introduced the rocket stove project to Dadaab I began working for them.  I am the senior supervisor of ILF’s Hagadera operation. I basically supervise and monitor the staff, do the daily reports, conduct the stove training sessions and manage the distribution.  ILF’s rocket stove project is appreciated by the refugee community because we give them a free stove, they save on firewood and they understand that it is helping protect the environment!
