I am a public health specialist heading the innovation and research hub for the Ministry of Water and Environment in Uganda. I develop and promote technologies for improving access to safe water and sanitation, upholding the integrity of the environment in communities. Our activities prioritize marginalized groups, including women, persons with disabilities, the very poor, and the youth.
