WHAT IS COMMUNITY – LED TOTAL SANITATION ?

� They are total (meaning involve/affect everyone in the community e.g. total elimination of open defecation,

� Collective Community decision and collective local action are the keys

� Social Solidarity and cooperation are seen in abundance � They are often locally decided and are not dependent on externa

subsidies and prescriptions or pressures� Natural Leaders emerge from the collective local actions and

they lead future collective initiatives� They often don’t follow externally determined mode of

development and blue print � Local diversity and innovations are the main elements

PROBLEMS AND ISSUES � Govt. complex Work Mechanism � No prior experience of NGO & TMA joint collaboration /

cooperation.� Programme with out monetary allocation.� No direct benefit to supervisory staff and elected representatives.� Lack of environment of communities due to cultural restriction � Lack of interest due to availability of wide areas for defecation.� Negative perception of the community and religious leaders

towards the Programme/NGO.� Lack of knowledge & Awareness.� Technical Problems regarding latrine construction � Community considered these pit latrines unsustainable� Lack of wide space at House.

10/11/2006 IRSP Mardan 22

WAY FORWARD

� Adapt the community Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) to focus more on total sanitation concept through developing capacities and strengthening alliances;

� Document/Conduct third party evaluation of Open Defecation Free Village claims in Mardan;

� Provide communal subsidy as reward for getting open defecation free village status,

� School children have always been found as easy recipients of sanitation and hygiene messages. Hence school WES Should be integrated with Community WES and vice versa.

� Communities own initiative and innovation should be encouraged in term of latrine construction

� Establishment of CLTS promotion wing inside TMA’s tolaunch the wide scale programme.
