Onsite sanitation systems and contamination of groundwater: A systematic review of the evidence for risk using the source-pathway-receptor model Open
The level of risk that onsite sanitation systems (OSS) pose to groundwater quality remains uncertain. The link between contamination and OSS can only be proved if the source, pathway, and receptor are investigated and confirmed when assess…

Onsite sanitation systems and contamination of groundwater: A systematic review of the evidence for risk using the source-pathway-receptor model. Open
The level of risk that onsite sanitation systems (OSS) pose to groundwater quality remains uncertain. The link between contamination and OSS can only be proved if the source, pathway, and receptor (SPR) are investigated and confirmed when …

Tools for a comprehensive assessment of public health risks associated with limited sanitation services provision Open
Three water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) support tools were applied to Kampala city, Uganda, to evaluate areas with the highest health hazard due to poor wastewater and faecal sludge management and to develop interventions to improve san…

Whole-system analysis reveals high greenhouse-gas emissions from citywide sanitation in Kampala, Uganda Open
Global estimates of emissions of greenhouse gasses do not take into account the complex service chain in rapidly growing cities in low- and middle-income countries. This paper presents an end-to-end analysis to estimate emissions from all …

Future changes and uncertainty in decision-relevant measures of East African climate Open
The need for the development of adaptation strategies for climate change in Africa is becoming critical. For example, infrastructure with a long lifespan now needs to be designed or adapted to account for a future climate that will be diff…

FCFA HyCRISTAL Climate Narrative Rural Infographic and Brief Open
These stories describe three possible futures for rural East Africa in 2050. How the climate will change in the coming decades is uncertain, so three different plausible futures are included to demonstrate this range. These futures do not …

Scientific Understanding of East African climate change from the HyCRISTAL project Open
Integrating Hydro-Climate Science into Policy Decisions for Climate-Resilient Infrastructure and Livelihoods in East Africa (HyCRISTAL) is a Future Climate for Africa (FCFA) project funded to deliver new understanding of East African clima…

Characterisation of faecal sludge simulants for drying experiments Open
In order to optimize the drying process in covered, unplanted sludge drying beds more testing on faecal sludge drying and dewatering is required. Using real faecal sludge for drying and dewatering experiments is often not viable given the …

The electric commons: A qualitative study of community accountability Open
This study explores how energy might be conceptualised as a commons, a resource owned and managed by a community with a system of rules for production and consumption. It tests one aspect of Elinor Ostrom's design principles for successful…

East African Climate Variability and Change Open
Scientists focusing on climate change in east Africa are interrogating climate models to provide more reliable information for decision-makers. Their burning questions include:
\n
\n• How will aspects of climate that are relevant to decisi…

East Africa's Climate: Planning for an Uncertain Future Open
Rising temperatures and changing rainfall patterns will have significant impacts across east African society. Decision-makers need accessible information on likely climate change if they are to plan appropriately for this uncertain future.…
