  • Novembre 2013: Cucinare con il Sole è organizzata da volontariato fondata nel 2006 da Ottorino Saccon , insegnante e artigiano, con sede a Santa Lucia di Piave TV, in Italia . Producono cucine solari paraboliche nella loro struttura in Italia e hanno inserito la cottura solare nei paesi dell'Africa centrale, effettuando 3-4 viaggi all'anno. Hanno lavorato con oltre 30 gruppi in officina, in genere con 10-20 partecipanti. A Sessene, a 15 chilometri dalla città di Thies, in Senegal , gli abitanti del villaggio assemblano il loro primo fornello solare. Poco dopo, all'ombra di una madre di baobab, condividono un pasto a base di riso cotto e verdure.
