ATEC, an impact enterprise working to solve clean cooking and climate change, has been awarded the SDG Brand Champion Award 2024 under the "SDG Brand Champion in Affordable and Clean Energy " category for the ground-breaking initiative Cook to Earn.
The cook-to-earn initiative turns cooking into income-generating affairs. This initiative directly opens carbon markets to women in Bangladesh. More than 65% of Bangladeshi households have limited access to clean cooking.
Every year, more than 100,000 people die from indoor air pollution, mainly women and children. Financial constraints make it difficult for BoP households to switch to cleaner
alternatives.
ATEC, a leader in electric cooking with patented IoT stoves globally, is helping Bangladeshi impoverished households gain access to clean cooking solutions through the Cook to Earn initiative.
Shuvasish Bhowmick, Country Director of ATEC, Mominur Rahman, Head of Marketing, and Rubayet Hossain Khan, Assistant Manager Marketing, shared the stage alongside the honorable chief guest, Syeda Rizwana Hasan, Advisor to the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, and the Ministry of Water Resources, during the award ceremony held on September 10, 2024, at Le Meridien Dhaka
