M&E Enumerators
THE ORGANIZATION
The Water Trust empowers rural communities in Uganda to reduce preventable death and debilitating disease by enabling access to safe water and a healthy, clean environment. Since 2008, The Water Trust has partnered with more than 900 communities in Masindi and Kiryandongo, benefitting more than 300,000 people. The Water Trust aims to increase the scale of its operations and pioneer new approaches to increasing the impact and sustainability of water, sanitation, and hygiene programs. In 2017, The Water Trust developed a novel approach to improving water sustainability by forming self-help groups in water point catchments, and leveraging these groups to mobilize funds for well repairs and provide a community platform for hygiene and sanitation promotion. Today The Water Trust has trained more than 900 self-help groups in western Uganda and plans to scale this approach to reach one million people by 2024 through direct implementation and partnerships. The WASH Assistant plays an important role in implementing this expansion.
