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.

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.
