Funded under the URCS ECHO HIP 2022, the URCS together with the AutRC have 100% solarized a WASH Kit 5. In a previous attempt the Kit 5 had successfully been re-designed from sand/carbon filters to M40 batch treatment technology. First steps have been conducted together with staff and volunteers from URCS Kabarole branch and the HQ. The team around the training coordinator Sylvester is ready for the first Kit 5/solar training in November, also in Fort Portal.
