With Women Empowered Change Is Poo-sible!

Josephine Auma is the leader of Uganda-based organization Action for Women and Awakening in Rural Environment. As a participant in the Global Women’s Water Initiative three-year  “Women and Water Training Program” she is learning to build water and sanitation technologies and promote local economic development in doing so. Her work has led to the adaptation of community toilets, which is preventing the spread of bacteria and illness in her community. Photo credit: Global Women’s Water Initiative
