Impact on Underrepresented Groups:

Kouran Jabo empowers underrepresented groups in the climate movement, particularly low-income households, women, youth, and rural communities, by addressing energy poverty through the provision of accessible, clean energy solutions. Recognizing that these communities face systemic barriers to accessing sustainable energy, Kouran Jabo’s innovative "Pay As You Go" solar kits allow users to benefit from affordable, modern electricity without the financial burden of upfront costs. This approach directly targets groups most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, providing them with the tools to improve their quality of life while contributing to global sustainability efforts.
Kouran Jabo's commitment to inclusivity extends beyond its customer base to its organizational structure. The team is composed of local professionals who bring firsthand knowledge of the region's energy challenges, enabling the company to design tailored solutions for marginalized communities. Furthermore, Kouran Jabo has outlined plans to establish a production unit in Chad, which will create meaningful employment opportunities, particularly for young people, in a region where job prospects are limited. This initiative addresses both the economic empowerment of vulnerable populations and the need for sustainable energy transitions in underserved areas.
