Chikhanda Village

Country

Zambia

Project Type

Water

People impacted

3,456

Location

In the heart of the Sinda district in Zambia, Chikhanda Village is home to a resilient community of 3,456 people. However, this vibrant village faces a daily struggle that affects every aspect of their lives: the lack of access to clean, safe water. Currently, the villagers rely on unsafe water sources, leading to various health issues. Women and girls, the primary water collectors, endure the intense journey of 1.6 kilometers daily to fetch water. This task, essential yet taxing, not only exposes them to waterborne diseases but also takes a significant toll on their time and energy. The limited and contaminated water supply fails to meet the community’s basic needs for drinking, cooking, washing, and agriculture. This shortage hampers daily living and restricts opportunities for growth and development.

Water

People impacted

3,788

Location

In the Nabilatuk district of Uganda, Ariamaoi Village is home to 3,788 residents who face numerous hardships due to their reliance on unsafe water. To access water, villagers must dig into the riverbed and wait for the sand to settle. This arduous process exposes them to a multitude of dangers and challenges. The residents of Ariamaoi Village face extensive risks while fetching water, including encounters with snakes, wild animals, and thieves. Women and girls are particularly vulnerable to crowding and rape. The water sources are heavily contaminated, shared with wildlife, and expose the community to waterborne illnesses such as typhoid, diarrhea, brucellosis, cholera, and skin rashes. Digging too deep can cause holes to collapse, posing additional physical dangers. Moreover, the lack of proper sanitation and open defecation exacerbates the contamination of their water sources. Carrying heavy jerrycans over long distances further strains the community, leading to physical exhaustion and additional health issues such as stomach pain and severe diarrhea.
