Resumen:
Clean cooking has emerged as a major concern for global health and
development because of the enormous burden of disease caused by
traditional cookstoves and fires. The World Health Organization has
developed new indoor air quality guidelines that few homes will be able
to achieve without replacing traditional methods with modern clean
cooking technologies, including fuels and stoves. However, decades of
experience with improved stove programs indicate that the challenge of
modernizing cooking in impoverished communities includes a complex,
multi-sectoral set of problems that require implementation research. The
National Institutes of Health, in partnership with several government
agencies and the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves, has launched the
Clean Cooking Implementation Science Network that aims to address this
issue. In this article, our focus is on building a knowledge base to
accelerate scale-up and sustained use of the cleanest technologies in
low-and middle-income countries. Implementation science provides a
variety of analytical and planning tools to enhance effectiveness of
clinical and public health interventions. These tools are being
integrated with a growing body of knowledge and new research projects to
yield new methods, consensus tools, and an evidence base to accelerate
improvements in health promised by the renewed agenda of clean cooking.
