BACKGROUND:
Many people in the villages have no access to clean water. They fetch water from rivers or swamps which are in most cases contaminated.

The district water departments are obliged to the provision of safe water supply. Districts therefore commit funds to among others; rehabilitate existing water points that were abandoned or damaged due to the past insurgencies here in northern Uganda. One of the criterion (also supported by our previous polls) for any rehabilitation and construction activities should be based on demand responsive approach involving the users or beneficiaries at the grassroots in planning procedures.

The results of our previous poll show that 30% of the people fetch water from boreholes, another 30% from rivers and swamps. 28% from wells while only 2 percent have access to tap water.
