In partnership with CQuest, COMACO has distributed 97,463 fuel-efficient cookstoves that are monitored annually for their use and maintenance.
52% of COMACO farmers and half of all cooperative leaders are women, figures that would have been unimaginable twenty years ago.
We supply over 8,000 tons of nutritious food products to Zambia’s cities and towns annually under the brand It’s Wild!.
We worked with local chiefs to establish Community Conservation Areas designed to safeguard Zambia’s forests and the wildlife within them.
We helped establish 103 community-run cooperatives in 84 chiefdoms across Eastern, Central and Muchinga Provinces of Zambia.
COMACO started operating in Luangwa Valley with a mission to help wildlife poachers learn new skills to fulfil their livelihoods and protect wildlife.
