In 2000, three pilot ecosan toilets with agricultural reuse were setup in two Ugandan districts. Operation and maintenance by the end users proved a nightmare since sustainability, multicultural and religious issues were some of the aspects initially not considered. This led to the failure of the system to separate faeces and urine and be able to dehydrate the former. Further sensitisation of the population was repeated and after three months the operation and maintenance of the system improved.
