This morning, I presided over celebrations to commemorate @WaterAidUganda's 40 years of distinguished service to our communities in Uganda. I also launched their Program Strategy for the years 2023-2028.
Very happy to meet with Jane Sembuche, the Water Aid Country Director and her team, as Water Aid gears up for preparations to mark 40 years in Uganda. I congratulate them for their remarkable story of impacting lives and communities.
The Ministry of Water and Environment, in partnership with the European Union, have intervened in the water crisis in the districts of Namutumba, Buyende and Namayingo with a safe water project to save thousands of residents from consuming unsafe water.
