About Center for Entrepreneurship in International Health and Development (CEIHD) — now operating as Impact Carbon
The organization was established as the Center for Entrepreneurship in International Health and Development (CEIHD), with close academic roots at the University of California, Berkeley, and now operates publicly as Impact Carbon. It develops, implements and monitors clean cooking and related household energy projects that generate verified greenhouse‑gas emission reductions and promote healthier, lower‑cost household energy solutions in low‑income countries. In recent years the organization has focused on carbon‑finance backed cookstove programs and commercial distribution partnerships in countries including Uganda, Kenya and China, working with local manufacturers and distributors to scale uptake. Recent publicly filed returns and the charity’s own reporting show active project development and ongoing Gold‑Standard/verified carbon credit activity, with program revenues and multi‑million dollar net asset balances reported in the most recent filings.
