Measuring chlorination in areas with active Evidence Action chlorine delivery interventions
REFNo: SS3948ES
This study aims to assess the take-up of drinking water chlorination under DSW and ILC in Uganda and to compare different measurement methodologies to help improve monitoring protocols. The primary outcome of interest is the total number of people who use water pointers with DSW or ILC for which we can detect chlorine residual in the drinking water. Secondary outcomes explore differences in the methods used to estimate chlorination. In particular, we are interested in comparing chlorination rates measured using two different sampling frames (self-reported water point users and water point users listed) and two different chlorine residual measurement instruments (color discs and colorimeters). The tertiary outcome is the functionality of chlorination devices, which may be connected to low adoption. Finally, additional data will be collected to perform an exploratory analysis on other factors that may influence the adoption of chlorine for water treatment, such as the distance to the nearest water point where chlorine is available and the occurrence of symptoms related to the consumption of contaminated water.
