Much progress in the construction work and more girls going to school - exciting news for you from our project at 7 schools in Alebtong, Uganda!
Read here all of our achievements since May at 7 schools in the Alebtong district in northern Uganda:
- Energy-saving stoves with significantly increased capacity and school gardens were installed at four schools. As a result, regular school meals are now provided, leading to higher attendance rates and better grades, among other benefits.
- To improve sanitary conditions, a total of 80 latrines have been built. The latrine blocks for girls also include a washroom that can be used during menstruation.
- Many older female students have returned to school thanks to the improved conditions: at Atelelo School, the number of girls has risen from 230 (at the beginning of 2024) to over 800! In addition, each latrine block has been equipped with a rainwater collection system, a 1,000-litre water tank and seven hand washing facilities per school.
- Due to water shortages, in addition to the three newly built wells at the Ebule, Obangangeo and Atelelo primary schools, four other wells at the Obuo, Omoro North, Omele Modern and Agoro primary schools were renovated. Not only the pupils, but the entire communities benefit from the newly created access to clean water.

Read here all of our progress since January at 7 schools in the Alebtong district in northern Uganda:
- Two stakeholder meetings have taken place, updating the community of the progress.

It's time again for an update from our WASH program in the Alebtong region, Uganda!
Read here what has happened lately in our project at 7 schools in the Alebtong district in northern Uganda:
- Community dialog meeting at the 3 schools has taken place.
- Drilling of the wells started, 3 boreholes have been rehabilitated successfully and work on the new hand-washing facilities has begun.
- Fencing of boreholes by the community.
- A storm has torn off the roof of classrooms and latrines in one of the project schools. The school took care of the repairs to the classrooms on its own, and the latrines will be repaired as part of the project's construction measures
- As the construction work progresses and the learning environment improves, pupil attendance increases at the schools.
Thank you so much for your support so far! It is only thanks to donors like you that we can successfully implement our projects.
Best wishes,
Vanessa
