A Randomized Control Trial (RCT) on the Adoption of Liquefied Petroleum Gas

Researchers at PADRI have partnered with Colleagues at the School of Economics, Makerere University to conduct an RCT on the Adoption of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Cooking Technology among Fast Food (Chapati) Vendors. The main objective of this study is to examine the effect of hire purchase schemes and health and safety information on adoption of LPG. The study will contribute to establishing a policy intervention and a marketing strategy that can facilitate a switch from wasteful charcoal stoves to efficient and clean LPG cookstoves. The study is funded by Environment for Development (EfD) Global Hub, Sweden, through the Makerere University EfD Center.
