Resumen
Descripción
Over the past 10 years the government of
Uganda has endeavored to increase latrine coverage and
promote hygiene with a view to improving health outcomes. In
1997, in the Kampala declaration for sanitation, leaders
from all of Uganda's districts pledged to improve
sanitation. Then in 2001, three ministries, the Ministry of
Water, Lands, and Environment; the Ministry of Education and
Sports; and the Ministry of Health, signed a memorandum of
understanding to clarify institutional responsibilities with
respect to sanitation and hygiene and to improve
implementation at the district and local levels. The three
ministries agreed to put in place institutional arrangements
to prioritize resources for excreta-related sanitation and
hygiene programs. Although the main focus of this report is
on excreta-related sanitation and hygiene, the 2006 joint
sector review for water and sanitation also requested
clarification of existing mandates for two specific aspects
of environmental sanitation, namely solid waste management
and drainage and asked whether these two issues should be
included in the memorandum. Accordingly, this report also
explores the institutional issues linked with municipal
solid waste management and urban drainage. Because of
limitations of time and scope, it examines these particular
issues only in Kampala.
