| dc.description | This report presents the results of project implementation activities in Uganda of the project -“East African Dental Amalgam Phase down Project (EADAP)” that was also implemented in Kenya and Tanzania. The principal objective of the project was to explore essential conditions for a phase down approach in the use of dental amalgam by emphasizing “phasing down” instead of “phasing out” dental amalgam. Hence the project focused on dental amalgam in consideration of its potential for environmental release during trade and supply; its environmental release from dental clinics, and its environmentally sound management as waste. The project also considered strengthening oral health promotion and disease prevention through awareness raising. | en_US |
