22EFOD: Kachumbala Maternity Ward

23 EFOD: Engineers for overseas developmentAim: To challenge young professionals to form a team, design a solution, raise funds and then supervise the construction of a project that would benefit rural communities in Africa

EFOD Carmarthenshire was formed in 2012

1st project: Construct a grain store capable of storing 900 bags of grainFollowing this success EFOD challenged the First Minister for Wales during his January 2014 visit to the Kachumbala area to support the design and construction of a maternity ward containing 2 labour suites, a 12 bed ward, offices and stores. A challenge which he accepted

Since 2000 EFOD have been providing humanitarian development aid throughout Africa24 EFOD projects2016UgandaLondonKumi Hospital Pump House, Latrines, Solar WaterKumi Hospital50,000UgandaWest MidlandsKoutulai Widows Cooperative Grain StoreSaltPeter Trust25,000UgandaBristolMatuga Mill & Grain StoreRevival Centre25,000UgandaCardiffFaith Primary SchoolSaltPeter Trust100,000UgandaSouth West WalesKachumbala HS 3 Maternity Unit Phase 2Bukadea Council70,000UgandaNorth WestWomen's Refuge and Nursery, JinjaAct4Africa35,000ZambiaCardiffAbesu Cooperative Footbridge Site Investigation Ph3Abesu Widows Coop100,000TOTAL405,000Key Information

4 countries have benefitted between the years 2000-2015 with 36 projects completed to date

Projects have ranged from a 3000 school water tank to a 50,000 medical centre

To date over 250 young construction professionals have assisted with the projects

Total money raised: 520,000

ISSB: Interlocking soil stabilisation brick

Made from a mixture of:MarrumCementWater

Bricks are formed in a hand press machine

Ready to lay after 48hours of curing

An efficient gang can make 300 400 bricks per day per press

We arranged for 1000 bricks to be made before we arrived ISSB Bricks

Personal experiences and benefits to host countryPersonal experiences

Mbale hospital

We were provided the opportunity to witness the current conditions of the main hospital. We found it was:

OvercrowdedUnderstaffedPoorly educated

Social benefits

We arranged a football game between our labour force and that of another EFOD site working in Mbale. On the back of this success they are hoping to set up a league with other local teams

EFOD will continue to support by supplying a kit and equipment to help kick start the project

Carpenters are due to travel out in the new year followed by other necessary trades: Plasterers, M&E, Painter/decorator and finally NHS trainee midwives The structure has been completed and is ready for the roof to be installed

Progress to date SummaryWeek 9Discuss the work of civil, architectural and environmental engineers in developing countries and describe the benefits in relation to the host country, the profession and the individual engineer.23/11/15The humanitarian aid provided by EFOD has enabled beneficiaries to work themselves out of poverty, introduced new construction techniques to rural communities in Africa, and enhanced the training and management skills of the UK participants
