Uganda Study Abroad
Four weeks in Uganda studying the relationship between water and health, based at Makerere University with UW faculty, with field trips to public water treatment facilities, bottling plants, farms, clinics and hospitals, family homes, and other places where people interact with water. We'll examine how historical, social, economic, political, geographic and environmental factors in Uganda have contributed to water-related health problems and solutions. Visits to Jinja, Mbarara, Kaseese, Fort Portal, Murchison Falls Park, Gulu, and, if possible, a refugee camp.
