From camps to communities: a review of 10 years of WASH programming by Concern Worldwide in Northern Uganda
conference contribution
posted on 2018-02-12, 15:11 authored by Joseph Aluba, Emilly Lenia, Benjamin T. HarrisThere is a tendency for WASH interventions in emergency settings to be spontaneous and they frequently
conclude before the emergency is over. Similarly, organisations may respond to emergencies not as part
of their longer term country strategies, but rather as rapid responses to request for emergency calls.
Whereas such emergency programming is characteristic of refugee- type humanitarian programmes that
might culminate in voluntary repatriation, in emergency situations, like the case of the Internally
Displaced Persons (IDPs) programme in Northern Uganda, there is need to adopt a Linking Relief,
Rehabilitation and Development (LRRD) approach that entails planning for post - emergency recovery
and development programmes as well. This paper details Concern Worldwide's Water, Sanitation and
Hygiene (WASH) intervention in Northern Uganda spanning a 10 year period, bridging emergency and
development phases.
