Solar Connect Association (SCA) is a nonprofit promoting solar cooking in Uganda. Solar cookers are small, portable metal ovens powered by the sun. Successes are reported in poverty reduction, improving the status of the world’s women, and protection of environmental resources, in line with the organization’s goal to improve health and prosperity, reduce deforestation, and limit global warming.

Their highly organized efforts have been directed at the developing world and refugee populations.
