COMPE

The Community Mobilization for Positive Empowerment (COMPE) is an organization located in Kisumu, Kenya founded by Rosemary Atieno.
"COMPE is dedicated to creating lasting transformation in the lives of women, youth children and the entire community. (COMPE) coins its name from a desire to mobilize the community to develop local capacities to improve the socio-economic position of the beneficiaries to free them from the three major forms of vulnerability namely: transitory related to livelihood shocks which affect economically active groups, chronic related to life cycle events e.g old age, orphanhood, widowhood, disability and structurally related to market failures, seasonal unemployment, political marginalization, social exclusion." from the COMPE website
COMPE works in close partnership with the Siaya Mungano Network who advocate for clean cooking solutions. Among them, the introduction of solar cookers, and the adoption of the Integrated Cooking Method techniques.
