posted on 12.02.2018, 15:09 authored by Joel KiwanukaThis document provides the achievements and lessons learned from the Uganda selfsupply
pilot Project
(20062008).
The pilot project followed a research study undertaken in 2005 that indicated that selfsupply
initiatives existed in the Uganda rural water sector. Following the study a pilot project was
launched in September 2006 and involved engagement of two local NGOs with support from
Government. The pilot brought about a cost effective up grading of 41 water sources serving
approximately 600 households. More importantly it enhanced understanding of selfsupply
in Uganda,
and a number of emerging lessons emerged. These provide a better focused definition of self supply,
and
of the appropriate ways and means for future scaling up.
