Overview 2007

In the meantime, 25 people work in the factories in Toliara and Ejeda. Otto Frei, a board member from the very beginning, resigns from his position and takes over as ADES coordinator in Madagascar instead. Heinz Vetter, co-president of ADES since 2006, also spends eleven weeks on the island on a voluntary basis to familiarise himself with the various projects on site. In addition to the cooker production, ADES intensifies its cooperation with schools and teachers. Among other things, the new picture book "Toky et le roi soleil" is published. It is very popular in environmental lessons.

In the meantime, ADES presents itself at various events in Switzerland and gives several speeches. A charity event in favour of ADES is held with the two personalities Benedikt Weibel and Heinrich Müller. Highlights of the year are two award ceremonies: In February, Regula receives the international environmental prize "Trophée des femmes "* from the environmental foundation "Fondation Yves Rocher" and in autumn she is awarded the Swiss Solar Prize 2007 in the category of persons/institutions.

*At the request of the Malagasy government, ADES used this prize money to electrify a pilot village.
