With 2.5 billion people in the world not having access to adequate sanitation, the need to address this area is huge. We are training communities in choosing and building various types of pit latrines to help break the transmission of diseases. Like the hygiene training, this is also being done in a participatory style to develop community ownership and long term use and sustainability. Together with UNICEF we’ve been working in several regions of Zambia promoting latrines and constructing them at schools. UNICEF has found that just having latrines at schools promotes the attendance of more children, especially girls. It also has a direct effect on the overall health of the student body, reducing absences due to sickness.
