"End open defecation, empower communities"

To stop open defecation, and to reduce faecal contamination, that is polluting the entire environment in the village, causing various waterborne diseases to the inhabitants.We have constructed 150 new Individual Household Toilets and Septic Tanks to 150 Poorest of the Poor Families from resource less, Disadvantaged, Dalit Community, categorized as Marginalized Scheduled Caste Community, living Below Poverty Line Families.

We involved these beneficiary inhabitant’s participation right from the beginning Viz., Selection of Place, Planning, Markings of the construction Site, Toilet Designing, Project Implementation, and Reviewing the project. The construction excavation labour work of the Individual Household Toilets and Septic Tanks was laboured by the Beneficiary families only to make them aware about the importance of project and its objectives, and as well as to beneficiary contribution as a labour to reduce the costs.

We formed Community Sanitation Committee (CSC) in the Village with 6 members (3 Men and 3 Women) to look into every aspect to facilitate development of infrastructure through community participation for further support. The activities mainly focused on the community participation at every level making them self-reliant to self- govern the activities in an effective & efficient way.
