Briquette making technology:
The training was provided by Mrs. Diana Sawers and Mr. Robin members on Nairobi Eastland’s lottery club. She highlighted to the present youth that fire briquettes compare to charcoal burns for longer hours, can cook three meals, provide clean fuel, produces less smoke and are cost effective. The youth she continued can venture into this clean technology as an enterprise and employment creation avenue. This she said can held in addressing the problem of youth unemployment leading to improved livelihoods and self reliance, contributing immensely to attainment of millennium development goal number 1 of extreme poverty reduction and the youth employment creation policy in Kenya.
