This video highlights the early impact of the Undoing Inequity: Water, sanitation and hygiene programme. The programme provides water delivery for all based on a research project in the districts of Amuria and Katakwi north east Uganda. The project is being implemented by Water Aid in collaboration with Leonard Cheshire Disability, Water.Engineering and Development Centre. The project has generated evidence on how community access to information and design options can help in breaking down barriers for people living with disability, older people and those living with chronic illness can access water, sanitation and hygiene services, using local materials to make simple adaptation on standard facilities.
In Uganda 1 in 5 persons over the age of 5 years has a disability (Demographic and Health Survey 2006).
