Ntoroko: Kabarole Research & Resource Centre-Uganda (KRC) has donated water purifiers worth millions to Rwangara Primary School in the Floods-Hit Ntoroko District, Western Uganda.
The donation comes as a crucial intervention after devastating floods forced the school to relocate to temporary grounds.
While delivering the water Purifiers last week, Patrick Muzinduki, the Deputy Executive Director, KRC, emphasized that the purifiers will provide essential access to clean drinking water for students and surrounding communities to prevent waterborne diseases as one of the significant health risks following the floods.
In addition to water purifiers, KRC also launched educational programs on sanitation and recovery to address urgent issues caused by the community’s displacement. This initiative aims to mitigate both the psychosocial and physical challenges displaced residents face by engaging the community and raising awareness on topics like hygiene, gender-based violence, child protection, fostering resilience and unity among families.
Speaking to our Chief Spy, Andrew Irumba, Patrick revealed that after the floods, Rwangara Primary School is facing several challenges where displaced students have to walk or travel long distances by boat daily through stretches of flooded terrain.
Meanwhile, Ninsiima Paul, the headteacher of Rwangara Primary School, noted that the school now operating in tents provided by UNICEF and Save the Children, has experienced a decline in its student population as some families move to safer areas and others struggle to cope with the harsh conditions.
