Notes
Alex B with leaders of Kalitumba village, Zaina and Eliot continued with home to home visit from where they ended up during the previous time. It was a continuation of meeting the people in their homes and inform them about MCD program. The purpose is that all households participate and benefit from working together as a community.The idea of planting trees,doing activities as individuals and in a group is promoted.There was a good welcome by community members in their homes and the idea was being embraced by the community.It was noted that some people were not aware and others had lost interest due to not being encouraged by the community leaders.The chairperson and Lc1 also was on the board to ensure that the people are reminded of the previous programs like WASH was once in the community. It was also to remind them that all programs from kibo group are equally important and good for the community.The total households that were visited is forty four.The community members at this period are not so busy since it’s not a planting,harvesting or weeding period. Those that were being asked if they want to plant trees,the answer was yes with land where to plant them and even caring. It was along day but with good results since people were found in their homes with a good reception and promise to attend community meetings to learn more about the program. Few homes were not reached since it was past three o’clock for Alex B to head out for Jinja. Alex B and the community leaders will plan during the next visit to finish up with those few homes and there after have a general meeting with all community residents.
