How do rural Ugandan communities experience a subscription-based handpump maintenance service? Subscription Handpump Maintenance Evaluation
Description:
Highlights
• Community members may prefer to pay for water seasonally rather than monthly.
• Volunteer water user committee members sometimes misused funds, reducing the revenue available for water point maintenance.
• The water point caretaker role was critical to socially appropriate problem-solving and fee collection, justifying a formal position and appropriate compensation.
• Conflicts over queuing and water transport containers could negate the benefits of safe water access.
