  • Rubaga Municipality
    FOREWORD This Slum Settlement Profile comes at an opportune time – a time when the city of Kampala is experiencing unprecedented growth in the history of Uganda. This growth and expansion is visible through the mushrooming of informal settlements across the different divisions of Kampala, especially in the low-lying areas of the city. This expansion has definitely exerted enormous pressure on land, with the poor occupying open spaces and the rich pushing the poor out of settlements for commercial and more formalised developments. The urban infrastructure (services and utilities) has not been spared as many residents demand for better quality water, sewer/ sanitation facilities, electricity, roads, security, and proper solid waste management systems. While the city still grapples with serving the existing communities, there are thousands that are flocking to the city in search of employment opportunities and better services. The invisible challenge for both the city and the communities has been lack of data/ information concerning the informal settlements, leading to a very wide gap between the plans and the priorities for the slum residents. The variables looked at in this Slum Profile include, among other factors, Security of Tenure, Housing, Water and Sanitation, Economic Activities, Accessibility, Drainage, and Solid Waste Management. Perhaps, the most outstanding and profound aspect is that this Slum Profile is not a collection of information from lawyers, teachers, doctors, or academicians, but rather ideas from the real slum dwellers who interface with the day-to- day challenges of slum life.

III (Nov. 2014), PP 87-95 www.iosrjournals.org Sustainable Management of KCCA Mpererwe Landfill: History, present, future possibilities and solutions. A qualitative study 1Nabukeera Madinah, 2Ali Boerhannoeddin, 3Raja Noriza Binti Raja Ariffin 1Management Faculty , P.O.Box 2555 Mbale Uganda, Islamic University In Uganda 2Department of Administrative studies and Politics Faculty of Economics and Administration Kuala Lumpur P.O. box 50603 Malaysia 3Department of Administrative studies and Politics Faculty of Economics and Administration Kuala Lumpur P.O. box 50603 Malaysia Abstract: Approximately 1500 tonnes are dumped at Kitezi landfill presently in Uganda, due to increased daily generation of solid waste. Although this state of affairs calls for improvement of the practices at the landfill in a sustainable manner to safeguard the environment and uphold public health, the required technology for the landfill is yet to be attained. The aim of this paper is to ascertain and assess the growth and tendencies in landfil utilization in Uganda. In 1970s management of solid was characterized by the use of the traditional open dumping sites normally found in the suburbs of the city, an approach that was suitable since the population was still low. The period from 1986 embraced a decentralized system of management that was accompanied with rapid construction of residential structures and a reduction in spaces for open dumping. This called for a more organized system for solid waste management. Thus waste management became a responsibility of the five divisions under Kampala Capital City Authority.

Malaria is frequently diagnosed in urban Kampala, despite low transmission intensity. To evaluate the association between recent travel out of Kampala and malaria, we conducted a matched case–control study. Cases were febrile outpatients with a positive malaria test; controls were febrile outpatients with a negative test. For every two cases, five controls were selected, matching on age. Data were collected on recent overnight travel out of Kampala (past 60 days), destination and duration of travel, and behavioral factors, including sleeping under an insecticide-treated net (ITN) during travel. From July to August 2019, 162 cases and 405 controls were enrolled. The locations of residence of cases and controls were similar. More controls were female (62.7% versus 46.3%, P < 0.001).

FOREWORD All over the world the pandemic has revealed the fault lines of societies. COVID-19 might hit ministers, members of parliament and medical workers alike, but the real burden of the virus and the measures to stop its spread is being carried unequally along traditional dividing lines of class, race and gender. We are learning on so many levels how this pandemic is exposing the frailties and inequalities of our societies.
