  • Piloting of a Mobile Fecal Sludge Transfer Tank in Five Divisions of Kampala Martin Mawejje May, 2018
    Piloting of a Mobile Fecal Sludge Transfer Tank in Five Divisions of Kampala Martin Mawejje May, 2018 Photograph 1: Transfer tank in a slum within Makindye Division, Kampala Background Water For People in 2013 partnered with GIZ to increase access to sanitation coverage through promotion of sustainable sanitation technologies and scaling up the pit emptying business in three parishes: Bwaise I, Bwaise II and Nateete. Among the achievements of this engagement was the recruitment of six entrepreneurs, of which five are still active to-date, and development of business plans for the entrepreneurs. The entrepreneurs could empty over 400 pit latrines by the end of the project period. One of the challenges to the gulper entrepreneurs and clients during the 2013 project was the high costs of gulping. The business model implemented was deemed to be more expensive for some communities, particularly due to transportation costs that are factored into the cost per trip made to dumping site, and thus borne by the client. The project recommended the need to have a system that will ensure affordable collection costs incurred by the client. A pilot test of a small fixed transfer tank system in the fecal sludge management (FSM) chain (Figure 1) which would allow transport cost savings for manual pit latrine emptying businesses was initiated. However, the project failed due to land issues that are common in Kampala. Some land owners were not authentic. In other areas, the development plans would not allow permanent transfer tanks, while hiring private land or buying is not only expensive but unsustainable. It is with this background that an idea of mobile sludge transfer tanks was conceived.

    Gender Analysis of Urban Agriculture in Kampala, Uganda Urban agriculture in Kampala City takes place The major potential health hazards on undeveloped land associated with urban agriculture have been classified as physical, chemical, including institutional and biological and psychosocial (Cole et al., mailo (privately owned) 2003). The physical hazards may include injury from sharp objects such as broken land, but also on risky bottles and needles in waste dumps. areas like former waste- Chemical hazards involve exposure through contact of chemicals with the skin, dumping sites, scrap inhalation of dust from contaminated soil yards, wetlands and or gaseous emissions and through ingestion of food crops contaminated with toxic roadsides. waste from soil and wastewater. Psychosocial hazards may arise from insecurity due to unclear land tenure, loss of farmland, fear of theft and violence or overload due to long hours of work. Biological hazards may be due to parasitic worms, bacteria and vector-borne diseases, such as malaria parasites hosted by certain food crops with life cycles in humans and other media. This paper focuses mainly on crop production in areas that are receiving solid or liquid waste in urban and periurban areas of Kampala City. Women grow food crops that fetch lower prices.

  • Uganda: Cholera 23 January, 2008
    DREF operation n° MDRUG003 Uganda: Cholera 23 January, 2008 The International Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) is a source of un-earmarked money created by the Federation in 1985 to ensure that immediate financial support is available for Red Cross Red Crescent response to emergencies. The DREF is a vital part of the International Federation’s disaster response system and increases the ability of national societies to respond to disasters. Summary: CHF 150,000 was allocated from the Federation’s Disaster Relief Emergency Fund (DREF) on 12 December, 2006 to support the national society in delivering assistance to some 300,000 beneficiaries. 600 Uganda Red Cross Society volunteers were equipped with knowledge about cholera transmission and prevention and deployed to the field to reach out to at least 300,000 people in the five divisions within Kampala City Council affected by the epidemic. The teams also facilitated active community-based case identification and referral of cholera cases to the health units for treatment and also undertook assessments to determine long- term solutions. <click here for the final financial report, or here to view contact details> URCS volunteers distributing bars of soap to an affected woman and child.

Starting with some 212 cases on 1 December, some additional 93 cases were reported in the next 3 days. This equaled a daily infection rate of 23 to 24 cases with a case-specific mortality rate of 3 percent.
