Listen to what the Ugandan people are saying about GULP

““Thank you very much for the great work that you are doing, and let me echo that really you are making a very, very great contribution, both at the community level and the national level.””

— Christopher Kasamba, Uganda Ministry of Water & Environment, Retired

In Uganda, women and children fetch the water. If the borehole is far away, it is an arduous and time-consuming task that interferes with the child’s education and the woman’s ability to transition out of poverty, and it leaves them vulnerable to attack on the roads after dark. In this video two women and the headmaster of a primary school describe the immense need and struggle for water in their villages.

Moses Emabu, Vice Chairperson of Amuria District, Uganda, describes the widespread problem of dry boreholes and the need for GULP’s groundwater location services.

Chris Kasamba, a scientist and consultant retired from Uganda’s Ministry of Water & Environment, discusses the significance of GULP’s groundwater mapping for local communities and the nation.

Dennis Omaria, a Soroti native and Community Relations Specialist for GULP, explains the importance of GULP for the Teso people.
