Universal Construction is proud to have the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) as a client and support the work of this wonderful organization.
The key areas of the ICRC’s work in South Sudan is providing access to clean water and sanitation. This is an area in which we have a huge amount of expertise. Given that water-borne diseases are a major cause of illness in the region, the ICRC has installed boreholes and water pumps, providing clean drinking water to communities. In addition, they have constructed and maintained latrines, helping to improve sanitation and prevent the spread of disease. Building toilet blocks (we build a lot of them) may seem a bit mundane, but they save countless lives!
The ICRC’s work in South Sudan and Uganda has made a positive and lasting impact. Despite the challenges, their interventions have contributed to tangible improvements in the areas of water, sanitation, healthcare, and family reunification.
