I would like to create positive impacts by working towards promoting good laboratory services for people.
What kind of community outreach activity are you planning to do this semester?
I plan to do a community sensitization about adherence to covid 19 standard operating procedures. I am doing this sensitization with a fellow Help to Help changemaker called Mulungi Priscillah N. We chose this activity because Uganda is now experiencing the second wave of Covid 19 and we have also noticed that people are now reluctant to following Covid 19 standard operating procedures for example wearing masks. We shall do this community engagement in our community of residence that is Taso village. We plan to do this sensitization on 27th May, 2021.
What worries you in the world and what can you do to change that?
Poor disposal of garbage - especially plastic has become a great concern. In Uganda for example people tend to dump rubbish even where it is not designated to be.
I think the government should set up strict laws against poor disposal of garbage. Serious punishments and fines should be put in place especially for those found at fault. Systems should also be set up inorder to do proper sorting of rubbish especially for plastics. Specific areas should be designated for disposal of rubbish and the necessary authorities should be in charge. Garbage that is biodegradable should be put to use as manure or used for energy production. Some garbage for example plastics can be recycled and put to better use. I will sensitize communities about the benefits of proper garbage disposal especially on soil fertility.
I will also do demonstrations to teach people how to sort rubbish that is biodegradable material from non-biodegradable. I will also be exemplary by picking up litter I come across as I move so that others can adopt the same method. I will also put up some posters indicating the dangers of poor garbage disposal. I will also advocate for campaigns to be done on garbage disposal for example a village cleaning campaign.
