Water is our business. As Rotarians, one of our core areas of focus is water and sanitation, because without it, peace, dignity, and opportunity cannot thrive. #CSOForum2025

Key takeaways from our conversations:

1. Trust & Governance – Overcoming limited trust, political interference, and fragmented forums requires structured spaces for evidence-based policy and collaboration.

📢 Day 2 of the WASH Citizens’ Manifesto Retreat!

We’ve wrapped up two powerful days of dialogue and co-creation. CSOs and WASH advocates have developed a citizen-facing manifesto to place water, sanitation, and hygiene at the center of Uganda’s 2026 elections. 🗳️💧

This is more than a document, it’s a people-powered call for dignity, equity, and accountability in WASH.
