Workshop on CSR for Sanitation
Wonder women of many Tamil Nadu villages - Water and Sanitation Promoters
The Water and Sanitation Promoter believes that there is a spirit of ownership among villagers that can be tapped into by someone within their own community. Posted on 24 Jun, 2013 09:32 PM

Sanitation is a familiar term but is often misunderstood to mean the building and using of toilets but this isn’t true. It covers a whole range of thought and action both pre and post latrine use, which includes cleanliness, personal hygiene and the safe disposal of the urine and faeces.

Sanitation models in Trichy, Tamil Nadu
Lack of sanitation affects women's health and living in the slums of Trichy Posted on 01 Sep, 2010 04:19 PM

A few weeks back I had the opportunity to visit a couple of partners in Tamil Nadu. These two partners are facing a difficult task—sanitation and hygiene implementation through community participation. One project is in the urban slums of Trichy while the other one is a rural project a few hours outside of Trichy. These communities have open defecation rates of 90%. The problem mostly lies on the women. Women feel embarrassed and ashamed to go out in the open, so as a result they only go in the early mornings or late at night—basically during pitch black. Menstrual Health is a topic that is only now being addressed with organizations developing their own branch of sanitary napkin production, sold cheaply to women in rural areas. In addition to the burden on women, open defecation pollutes water sources, thereby leading to diarrhea, one of the biggest killers of children in the developing world.
