Peter and Marcos, (and to readers of the Stoves Listserv: I am posting this message to the Stoves Listserv so that many others can be aware of my disappointment with the survey).
What a disappointment. I operate a small NGO nonprofit working at the literal frontier of cookstove technology. And you ask questions as if it were a business. But I was required to have an answer in order to continue. So I continued and the survey did not get any better. Then it got worse (see next).
The tacked-on survey about electric vehicles was abusive. Shame on the CCA and the hired guns for having put on that purely profit motivated extra survey. Note: Maybe there would have been a different tacked-on survey depending on how I responded to the previous question that might have been a filter. (I cannot go back into the survey to find out, and I do not want to waste any more of my time.)
I will await the results of the survey before passing final judgement, but I expect that the results will favor the large, established operations that can then use the survey results to favor themselves.
If others have taken the CCA survey, your comments (even if contradicting mine) would be appreciated. The link is below, in case anyone wants to look a what is being asked. But if you do, and if you give fake answers so that you can go to the next page of questions, please do NOT finish the survey and do NOT submit fake results. Give CCA and the workers a chance to try to maximize what they can from this survey.

Subject: FINAL INPUT NEEDED: 2019 Modern Energy Cooking Services Survey
Importance: High
My name is Peter George and I am Senior Director, Private Sector & Investment at the Clean Cooking Alliance.
We are currently working with the World Bank and Loughborough University, supported by Dalberg Advisors, in the development of a flagship global report on the state of access to modern energy cooking services.
Over the last few weeks, you will have received access to an online questionnaire that we have developed to collect your input on key dynamics shaping the sector. Before we close this survey, we want to make sure we take your perspectives into account and would highly value 30-40 minutes of your time to complete it.
Please click the following link to access the questionnaire: (link removed)
This is our final week of response collection – we very much look forward to your assistance and participation.
Do please reach out to me or Marcos Paya (CC’d) if any questions.
Best regards,
Peter
