Bosco Mwije is a plumber working for the government of Uganda’s Mid-Western Umbrella for Water and Sanitation Authority in Rweihamba, Kasenda. The government is committed to an ambitious goal: achieving universal access to piped water supply through public utilities by 2040. IRC is supporting regional departments such as the Mid-Western Umbrella in systems strengthening for improved service delivery. This includes advice on governance, documentation and impact storytelling, learning expositions and policy advocacy.

“Whenever I have any problem with the tap or water is not flowing, I just call Bosco. He responds immediately and he never complains,” says Grace Kansiime, a small business owner whose household recently started receiving safe piped water. The eversmiling Bosco is the point of contact for the community and makes frequent visits to manage repairs, do meter readings and install new connections. In his free time, Bosco likes to watch football
