Access to energy remains a major challenge for rural communities in Angola. This energy gap limits agricultural productivity and economic development, especially for women who lead much of the farming and household responsibilities.

To address this, UNDP Angola launched its first crowdfunding campaign—"Solar Kitchen: Cooking with the Right Energy!"—as part of the broader UNDP Africa #SwitchIt initiative. The campaign supports the UNDP Energy Moonshot, which aims to provide sustainable, affordable energy to 500 million people in Africa by 2025.
