The community will often intrude into the school to collect water thus disrupting the school program and most often vandalising the WASH facilities. Moreover, children always require safe water whether at school or back home. With Uganda's well-known family and gender role of children and women being the primary water collectors, it's crucial that a holistic approach is implemented to save these groups from the burden of water collection. This will avail time for the children to attend school and reduce conflict between school management and the community. Operation and maintenance of WASH infrastructures has been problematic in the past. Project implementation needs therefore to strengthen the government's asset ownership and effective operations and maintenance towards a higher reliability and longevity of WASH investment."}, {"bbox": [1026, 1680, 1143, 1705], "category": "Page-footer", "text": "Page 13 of 32"}]
