 In June 2025, the GPA launched the Institutional Clean Cooking (ICC) Community of Practice (CoP) in partnership with the World Food Programme. The CoP aims to foster coordination, knowledge exchange, and collaboration to advance sustainable solutions for institutional cooking across a wide range of contexts. It aims to serve as a convening space for all relevant parties - from development and humanitarian organisations, private sector actors, researchers, policymakers and practitioners - to share practical experiences, produce technical guidance on best practices and identify scalable approaches to meet the growing demand for clean, reliable, and cost-effective cooking in schools, health facilities, and other institutions.
-By fostering collaboration and aligning efforts, the CoP seeks to accelerate progress towards universal access to clean cooking and strengthen the resilience of institutions and the communities they serve. The CoP is open to all relevant partners working to advance institutional clean cooking in humanitarian and development contexts. If you are interested in joining the bi-monthly CoP, please reach out to [mailto:Iwona.bisaga@unitar.org iwona.bisaga@unitar.org], [Mailto:rebeca.solis@wfp.org rebeca.solis@wfp.org] and [Mailto:suzanna.huber@wfp.org suzanna.huber@wfp.org] for information on the next meeting.

 Many organizations and partners are working to bridge the gap in access to clean cooking solutions for people living in fragile and displacement settings, but progress remains difficult due to a range of persistent barriers:
-* '''Market and infrastructure constraints''': Displacement settings are often located     in remote areas with poor connectivity and inadequate infrastructure, making delivery of energy and other basic services expensive and     logistically complex.

 This page aims to consolidate knowledge and lessons learned from initiatives that aim to address these barriers and ensure lasting access to clean cooking in displacement settings. It seeks to foster collaboration among humanitarian, development, and private sector actors and promote a shared understanding of effective, context-appropriate solutions. By doing so, the page supports the development of best practices for achieving Sustainable Development Goal 7, which promotes access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all, including the world’s most vulnerable communities.

 Clean cooking in humanitarian and displacement settings is a critical component of the global agendas on energy access, sustainable development and climate action. Yet today, the vast majority of refugees, internally displaced persons, and host communities rely on firewood and other polluting biomass fuels to cook their food. This contributes to a host of environmental problems, such as air pollution, desertification, and overexploitation of natural resources. Women and girls often face heightened risks of gender-based violence during firewood collection and increased incidences of respiratory illnesses from cooking over an open flame, among other challenges.
