As an anthropologist with too many years of experience in the field talking to folks about their stoves and other types of technos I have learned that the challenge and the art and even the revelation depends on knowing which questions to ask, how to ask them
(in what language to ask these questions), how to record and aggregate the answers, and how to communicate your findings to decision makers who are trapped in a welter of competing agendas and paradigms.</div>

My anthropological conversations and feed back from stove users, makers, sellers, fuel suppliers,etc to policy makers and funders is like water off a ducks back. Maybe I am studying the wrong subjects......maybe I should study the policy makers and funders
and standard setters in Euro American high places. I need to study up from the stove users point of view at the BOP.</div>
