We have been working in the Gambia and had our Mayon Turbo  rice hull stoves
and rocket stoves made at the Gambia Technical Training Institute in the
Kombos and a local workshop. We hope to start a 3 yr stoves program in
Gambia and Kaolack Senegal soon. We think there could be interest in the
Vesto in Gambia as well. I really liked the Vesto stove for densified fuels
after seeing it burn at Crispins house in waterloo recently using our grass
pellets.
   
Some options we would like to develop in the region
Mayon turbo stove for rice husk and millet husk
Vesto for wood and densified fuels 
Rocket for wood.
