In the rural villages of Kole District, where Community Development Shield Uganda focuses its activities, we have identified specific villages with low water coverage. For example, there are up to 50 villages that do not have a single source of water, but we also have villages that have more than 3 sources. Some of these villages don't even have a spring or borehole. Although the distribution of water sources seems to be everywhere on the map, when you reduce it to the micro level, it is not evenly distributed. In March 2023, during the implementation of another WASH-related project on training hand pump mechanics and spring wells, Community Development Shield Uganda conducted a needs assessment with key stakeholders in the target project implementation area. It was found that waterborne diseases were prevalent, with children under 5 at high risk of chronic diarrhoea. At the start of our programmes, 20-36% of children under 5 had suffered from diarrhoea in the previous seven days.
