The solar ovens are nearing completion and we will find out today about our customs deal — we are hoping for transit papers so we can clear customs in Agadez.
The new challenge–as we wait for Dr. Skankey and the medical volunteers to arrive–is an Air France strike. oh well…..
Leslie,
I found your blog today. I help manage the Solar Cookers World Network, and would like to include your efforts on the site. We have information on solar cooking activities in over 100 countries, including NIger: http://solarcooking.wikia.com/wiki/Niger
We also have extensive resources available on current and emerging solar cooking technologies. Because ours is a wiki site, If we create an article for the Nomad Foundation, we ask only that you update briefly every three months with latest news. There are no dues. Our site is sponsored by Solar Cookers International, and we have received consulting status at the UN. It is important for the success solar cooking that efforts being made worldwide are recognized. Please consider joining. New member application: http://solarcooking.org/join/joinSCWNet.htm .
