The Development Related Role of Pottery Production in the Ankole Region in Western Uganda: A Case Study | Chapter 2 | Recent Trends in Arts and Social Studies Vol. 8

 The main aim search out look at how the earthenware business contributes to lowering poverty and inaction as well as how it influences the environment. The study looked into the socioeconomic and mechanics aspects of pottery produce in the Ankole district of western Uganda. Both concerning qualities not quantities and quantitative methods of data gathering and reasoning were used throughout the study's fieldwork. First, 148 accused were given questionnaires from a diverse drawing of individual parts of mechanism of the Ankole district. Second, in order to get a more exhaustive grasp of the experiences and outlooks of both traditional and up-to-date potters—something a questionnaire alone manage not provide—40 potters were interviewed and seven focus group talks were grasped with potters from this region. According to the results, mothers are predominantly being the reason for creating traditional ceramics, whereas males are generally involved in developing new methods and manufacturing monetary pottery. Unquestionably, brick and slab manufacturing has developed into a favorable industry, particularly for male minors because to the great demand for ability from both country and urban populations. However, porcelain-related activities have ruin the ecosystem. These efforts have created pools of still water in some locations, that serve as training grounds for mosquitoes that carry sickness over much of the region.
