It\u2019s my pleasure to present to you stories of change from our School Water, Sanitation and Hygiene Project implemented in the districts of Amuria, Katakwi and Napak, North Eastern Uganda with support from Misereor.
\nAt Community Integrated Development Initiatives (CIDI) together with Misereor our development partner, we believe that children at school have a right to safe drinking water, adequate sanitation facilities, clean surroundings and be able to practice good hygiene behaviors. Water, sanitation and hygiene in schools create an enabling environment, which secures children\u2019s dignity, safety, health and class attendance.
\nStories presented here not only give you insights on how change happened but they show how improved access to water, sanitation and hygiene education in school\u2019s transforms lives of learners and girls in particular.
\nOne key lesson from our School-WASH (SWASH) interventions is that when you equip school children with water, sanitation and hygiene knowledge, they become agents of change among their peers, families and communities.
\nIt is my hope that this publication gives you a better understanding of our organization and SWASH work in the districts of Amuria, Katakwi and Napak.<\/p>\n
Thank You<\/strong>
