Nwoya, November 21st, 2022 – TotalEnergies EP Uganda has today officially handed over a revamped 12-Unit housing block at Anaka General Hospital to Nwoya district. It is the only referral hospital in Nwoya District serving a population of nearly 300,000 people including referrals from 27 health centers in the District.

Speaking at the handover and commissioning event, Joy Muballe, Social Performance Director TotalEnergies EP Uganda said, “As part of our CSR pillars aimed at ensuring peoples’ wellbeing and creating shared value, the Company committed funds towards the implementation of this housing project for our community’s essential workers. The housing facility will improve accessibility to the workplace and improved living conditions for the hospitals’ health personnel”.

“This project has been undertaken in close partnership with Nwoya District Local Government and embodies our value of “Standing Together” with the communities surrounding our areas of operations, not just in Uganda but across the world where we are present,” she added.

As part of the sustainability strategy, the Nwoya District local government will continue to provide support to the maintenance and repairs of the housing block following the handover and commissioning.
