As the Guardian's coverage of the Katine project winds down next month, readers are asked for a final say

Next month, the Guardian's full-time coverage of the Katine project will come to an end after three years.

Much has happened since the African Medical and Research Foundation (Amref), with technical assistance from Farm-Africa, began its work in this sub-county of north-east Uganda in 2007, and many of you will have followed progress on the Katine website.

Since the launch, the Guardian has sought to report on daily life in this rural community, now home to almost 30,000 people, and the challenges of implementing a development project that aimed to improve their access to healthcare, education and clean water, improve sanitation and livelihoods and empower them after years of conflict and unrest.

Over the years, many of you have been keen to share with us your opinions of the project and your thoughts about development, and to mark the end of the Guardian's time in Katine – Amref's work will continue for another year - we would like you to give us your concluding remarks here. We would like to see a wide range of views and we hope to publish some of the best in a special Katine supplement in the Guardian on Saturday 30 October.
