Ecological Sanitation

Dignity

Safe drinking water and hygienic sanitation facilities are central to the human rights and personal dignity of every woman, man and child on earth.

In some areas, young girls do not go to school because there are no sanitation facilities for them – affecting not only their education, but their dignity and self-esteem as well.

Women and young girls are often made vulnerable to violence because the lack of latrines forces them to relieve themselves in unsafe areas or in darkness.
