Health and sanitation

We promote personal and household hygiene and sanitation among our beneficiaries through participatory approaches/trainings that include; construction and utilization of pit-latrines, bath shelters, plate drying racks, and livestock shelter.  Many households face challenges of lack of access to clean,safe water and children and wome travel long distances to access clean water for household use.

In response to the above challenges CARITAS Kabale diocese promotes ferro-cement water tanks and  tarpaulin walled underground tanks for the vulnerable households that fetch water from distant water sources. This in turn reduces the heavy work load for women and children can save some time to revise their books.
