Key takeaway One key sector for the transition agenda is WASH.
Why this matters
The transition of water supply management in Ugandan refugee settlements from humanitarian and development partners to national utilities is a critical step towards sustainable service delivery. With several settlements already gazetted, including Rwamwanja, Nakivale, and Oruchinga, the process is underway, but key information gaps remain, particularly in ungazetted settlements like Kyaka II and Kyangwali. Addressing these gaps is essential to inform the service transition and integration agenda, ensuring that the handover process is successful and national utilities can provide services that meet national standards. The phased approach outlined by the Ministry of Water and Environment's strategic transition framework provides a clear roadmap, but its implementation will depend on accurate assessments of water supply infrastructure and the refurbishment of systems to meet national standards. As the process moves forward, it will be crucial to monitor progress and identify areas where additional support is needed to ensure a smooth transition and sustainable service delivery.
