Euan runs the largest clean cookstove programme in Africa. He is based in Kigali, DelAgua’s Regional Centre of Excellence and employs 8,000 staff to deliver the Live Well programme in Rwanda, The Gambia, Sierra Leone and Liberia. DelAgua works in partnership with host governments, exclusively targeting rural communities who have been denied access to clean cooking because of lack of affordability. Live Well provides a top-quality energy efficient stove integrated with education and long-term support, free of charge. Since joining in 2020 from PwC, Euan has attracted investment to distribute 1 million stoves, and by 2024 Live Well will have provided over 2.3 million stoves in Rwanda, benefiting over 11 million people. Euan represents the new generation of leaders who see carbon finance as key to supporting the poorest rural communities across Africa and are using it to achieve real change and accelerate action on the green development agenda.
