Methodology
This study will employ the descriptive research method
using observation. In this method, it is possible that the study would be cheap
and quick. Nonetheless, it would be very hard to rule out alternative
explanations and especially infer causations. Descriptive research is a type of
research that is primarily concerned with describing the nature or conditions
and degree in detail of the present situation (Creswell, 1994). The emphasis in
this type of research is to describe rather than to judge or to interpret.
The data will come from published articles from
journals, books and studies on Uganda’s drainage system, its current situation,
and the importance of better drainage system. For this research design, the
author will gather data, collate published studies and make a content analysis
of the collected documentary and verbal material. Afterwards, the author will
summarize all the information, make a conclusion provide insightful
recommendations on the dealing with Uganda’s drainage system.
This study will employ qualitative research to analyse
qualitative elements that do not have standard measures such as behavior,
attitudes, opinions, and beliefs.
Furthermore qualitative research is multimethod in focus, involving an
interpretative, naturalistic approach to its subject matter.
