Here are some pictures of wells that I visited during my first week of work in the field to run a baseline survey on the waterpoints in Chienge district which is located upper in the North of Zambia. Now that I have compiled all the data from the survey, I am working on analysing the results and will be writing a report that will be used to create a tool that will help us understand better the current situtation and foresee the challenges of implementing the Self Supply Programme in the region.
