Believe Obafaiye is the team lead for YOWIF (Young Women in Farming). YOWIF's pay-as-you-use solar lantern rental system addresses two interrelated challenges: low levels of household energy access and climate change.
The YOWIF system replaces kerosene wick lanterns with clean renewable solar lanterns for millions of people living off the energy grid in Nigeria. These solar lanterns lead to a reduction in carbon emissions, with the added benefit of improving the health and living conditions of the people using them.
