        <![CDATA[<p>Hello everybody - I received a response from JICA today.  The response was vague (the only email option on the website is via a suggestion/question interface - no actual email addresses are available) but it directed me to the JICA office in Uganda (Kampala) with the following link:<br />
<a href="http:// http://www.jica.go.jp/uganda/index.html"><br />
http://www.jica.go.jp/uganda/index.html</a></p>

<p>Unfortunately, this link is in Japanese (if you click on the English tab you are simply re-routed to the JICA homepage).  I think it might be best for us to go through the Uganda office for information on this well although I will follow up with their head office as well. </p>

<p>In the meantime, Katheryn - any chance you can help out with a translator?<br />

        <![CDATA[<p>Hello again - Have a look at the report below (also posted on the wiki).  It is an overview of the entire water sector in Uganda but a few chapters will be directly relevant to us:</p>

<p><strong>Chapter 3</strong> - Summary of Uganda's freshwater sources including quality monitoring<br />
<strong>Chapter 4</strong> - Summary of rural water supply</p>

<p>In chapter three there is a description of a current water quality monitoring program for groundwater which means we may be able to find some water quality data for, at minimum, the region we are working with.</p>

<p>Enjoy...</p>
