A woman returning to her camp for the displaced after fetching firewood. According to relief workers and human rights groups, hundreds of women have been raped and several killed while hunting outside IDP camps for firewood. The ACT-Caritas program in Darfur trains women to build stoves that require less wood, thus reducing the number of trips the women make to obtain fuel.
