In August 2015, IRC International Water and Sanitation in Uganda and the Uganda Water and Sanitation NGO Network (UWASNET) undertook a documentation exercise, to gather evidence of the key issues surrounding O&M in different areas, with a view to advocate for increased funding towards Operation and Maintenance (O&M) and effective management of water supply facilities. Ten sources were visited in four districts including: Pallisa; Namayingo; Gomba and Kalungu.
