Project
Overview

The rapid urbanization is outpacing waste disposal capabilities, leading to environmental hazards and unsustainable landfill practices. Addressing these challenges is crucial for environmental protection, energy sustainability, and meeting Uganda's Vision 2040 goals for reliable and sustainable energy access.

The project proposes the use of bio digester technology to decompose organic waste, producing biogas for clean cooking fuel and bio slurry for agricultural use. This approach not only offers an innovative solution to waste management but also contributes to carbon emission reduction and food security.

The project is in the planning phase, with activities including training and sensitization, establishment of bio digester facilities, waste collection systems, and business development. The timeline and milestones are outlined with a target budget, indicating the project's structured planning and implementation strategy.

The project is expected to have a positive impact by managing biodegradable waste, reducing landfill burden, providing clean cooking fuel, and enhancing agricultural productivity through the use of bio slurry as manure. It also aims to create employment opportunities and promote research in bio-energy.

The project involves collaboration with Kampala International University and the local community, including farmers who will benefit from the use of bio slurry. The project's success relies on the engagement of these stakeholders and their participation in training and waste collection efforts.
