Fronteiras Edição 1: Desenvolvimento da Concepção Participativa para Saneamento

A sustentabilidade das latrinas é uma questão fundamental de CLTS. Solos arenosos ou rochosos, inundações sazonais e térmitas podem criar dificuldades às comunidades que assumiram elas próprias a responsabilidade do seu saneamento, como resultado do CLTS, e que estão a construir latrinas. O Manual de CLTS identifica a necessidade de abordagens da concepção participativa durante as sessões de acompanhamento com as comunidades capacitadas.

Fronteiras Edição 2: Como Despertar para a Lavagem das Mãos com Sabão

A lavagem das mãos é uma parte essencial de bom saneamento e higiene. Quando o Saneamento Total Liderado pela Comunidade (CLTS) e o seu objectivo de comunidades ODF (Livres de Fecalismo a Céu Aberto) são totalmente compreendidos e levados à prática, é claro que lavagem das mãos está implícita na abordagem. Sem tratar a questão da lavagem das mãos e outras práticas de higiene, as comunidades nunca podem tornar-se completamente ODF, uma vez que o objectivo de serem ODF implica cortar todas as vias de contaminação fecal-oral.

Violence, Gender and WASH Toolkit launched

falseAlthough the lack of access to appropriate sanitation, hygiene and water services is not the root cause of violence, it can lead to increased vulnerabilities to violence of varying forms, with incidences reported from a wide range of contexts. In response, the SHARE Research Consortium has developed a toolkit designed to help practitioners to better recognise the risks of violence linked to water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) and provide guidance on what WASH practitioners can do to reduce these vulnerabilities to violence.

Blogwriting guidelines, tips and tricks

Many of you have a lot of experience to share on CLTS. But often, documentation and sharing is inhibited by the belief that it's difficult to write or that here is a right or wrong way of doing it. Blogs are a great and easy way to share your experiences, views, reflections and opinions as well as raising questions and starting discussions with the global community of CLTS and WASH practitioners. They can be short, informal and personal in tone and therefore easy for anyone to write.

Frontières Numéro 2: Comment déclencher le lavage des mains avec du savon

Triggering for handwashing French cover

Le lavage des mains est une composante cruciale d’une bonne hygiène et d’un bon assainissement. Lorsque le concept d’Assainissement total piloté par la communauté (ATPC) et son objectif de communautés FDAL (fin de la défécation à l’air libre) sont parfaitement compris et mis en pratique, il est clair que le lavage des mains est indissociable de l’approche. Sans s’attaquer au lavage des mains et aux autres pratiques d’hygiène, les communautés ne pourront jamais devenir entièrement FDAL car l’ATPC entend couper toutes les voies de contamination fécale-orale.

How to Trigger for Handwashing with Soap

Handwashing is a vital part of good sanitation and hygiene. When Community-Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) and its aim of ODF (open defecation free) communities are fully understood and put into practice it is clear that handwashing is implicit in the approach. Without addressing handwashing and other hygiene practices, communities can never become fully ODF since CLTS aims to cut all faecal-oral contamination routes. However, in practice, the degree to which handwashing is integrated into triggering and follow up, depends on the quality of facilitation.

Frontières Numéro 1: Développement d’un concept participatif pour l’assainissement

Frontiers Issue 1 French cover

La durabilité des latrines est un enjeu crucial de l’ATPC. Les sols sablonneux ou rocheux , les inondations saisonnières ou encore les termites peuvent présenter de graves défis pour les communautés qui ont choisi de s’occuper de leur propre assainissement grâce à l’ATPC et qui optent pour la construction de latrines. Le manuel de l’ATPC identifie le besoin d’approches par conception participative durant des sessions de suivi avec des communautés ayant fait l’objet d’un déclenchement.
