Policy Instruments for a Sustainable Transition of Household Cooking and Lighting Habits in India

Within the framework of an Indo-Swiss research project on the public acceptance and environmental impacts of fossil fuel subsidy reform, researchers from Switzerland and India will share their results on LPG consumption among beneficiaries of the Indian Government’s Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana programme (PMUY), and the potential impact of LPG uptake on health. A high-level expert panel discussion will put the results in a broader perspective and relate them to political and practical issues of implementation.
