The water and sanitation sector in Kabale district is one of the sectors through which Poverty Eradication is being implemented, particularly through improved and sustainable water supply and sanitation. A study of the water and sanitation patterns of the district were conducted. These showed that poverty greatly limited good hygiene behaviour and improved sanitation and that without community involvement and participation towards ensuring improved and sustainable hygiene, very little shall be achieved. This paper outlines the above process and draws appropriate conclusions.
