  ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes the effects of overall globalization and its three sub-dimensions (economic, social and political globalization) on access to clean fuels and technologies for cooking, using data from 31 African countries from 2000 to 2020. Evidence from instrumental-variable (IV) two-stage least squares (2SLS) approach (IV-2SLS) highlights that the overall, social and political globalization improve access to clean fuels and technologies for cooking. Additionally, the investigation reveals that economic growth, information and communications technology, remittances, environmental degradation and financial development improve transition to clean cooking technologies in the selected countries. We recommend that policies promoting globalization would improve access to clean cooking fuels.
