In Kenya, the project seeks to promote access to sustainable energy supply for refugees and their host communities in Turkana West Sub-county.

| − | In 2021, SUN-ESDS established a working group called the '''E-waste Reduction in Displacement Settings,''' which was further re-named to '''Humanitarian E-Waste Network (HEWN)'''. This group aims to minimize the environmental and health hazards caused by the accumulation of electronic waste in humanitarian crises and displacement situations. It serves as a platform for UN organizations, international organizations, NGOs, and others involved in the humanitarian sector to collaborate and advocate for responsible energy access and e-waste management in and around refugee settlements.
