Notes
This visit to Kagulu was to target those homes that are still working to meet the standards in sanitation and hygiene. By the time WASH carried out a third survey, some homes hadn’t met the required standards and so WASH staffs have since kept pushing these homes to meet the standards and encouraging them to make sure they are doing what is required. Kauta John has also completed digging a new pit and two new pits were also spotted in the trading center.
Alex first met with the LC 1 Namusayi village and moved in those homes in his village that were still lagging behind. On a good note, most of the homes have greatly improved. He managed to see two new complete pit latrines, one for Geoffrey and Stephen Kilanda. However, as they were still walking into other homes, rain started and disrupted the program.
Alex together with two LCs then met and he told them to mobilize people for a large village meeting next week targeting the current Sanitation state of their village of which will be discussed as a community. Every facility will be discussed in the meeting and how the community plans to maintain these facilities even when Kibo leaves the village.
Depending on how the community will respond, Alex will then break the news about Kibo planing to give a new well to Kagulu village. Currently most people have to wake up by 2:00am to come to the borehole to get water and most people end up waiting for long hours before they can get water from this low yield borehole located in the trading center.
