Aromo Sub-County Water and Sanitation Project

The project aims to improve health conditions in 28 rural communities of the Aromo Sub-County. It focuses on reducing water related diseases by increasing coverage and improving access to safe and potable water and sanitation for 16,600 inhabitants, of which 6,000 are children, youth, and teachers who attend schools. The project approach develops capacity of local organizations and local government authorities to incorporate training activities in health, hygiene, management and maintenance into water and sanitation infrastructure programs. Project activities include: (i) drilling shallow and deep wells, (ii) building of four-cubicle latrines and hand washing stations in 26 schools, (iii) establishing and training adult and youth committees for water and sanitation, (iv) training local trainers in health, hygiene and sanitation, and (v) training pump mechanics to support ongoing maintenance of the wells. Staff also facilitate the liaison between Canadian and Ugandan youth through Web-based communications to share hygiene and health knowledge and practices. The local partner is Divine Waters Uganda.
