SACOSAN IV - The Colombo Declaration has recognized the potential of sanitation to empower communities and to be a powerful entry point for development. To meet up with the above objective it was extensively discussed the need of having special programmes in regional level with in the South Asia. SACOSAN IV Follow up Activities Sanitation Programme was initiated to meet up with the first, third and fourth commitments of the Colombo Declaration. 4
10 2. INTRODUCTION Sanitation facilities are very helpful to reduce the mal hygienic practices of people. Basically good hygienic practices prevent the contamination of human fecal from water and soil and avoid the transmission of fecal - oral diseases. Epidemiological evidence suggests that sanitation has a huge impact in preventing diseases with the improvement of water supply. Apart from that, it helps to make major changes in people's behavior further to minimize the household cost. Sanitation is likely to be particularly effective in controlling worm infections. Adults often think of sanitation in terms of their perceptions. But the safe disposal of children's faeces has got a critical importance to promote sanitation within the family. Children are the main victims of Diarrhea and other faecal-oral disease, and also the most likely source of Infection. Construction of child friendly toilets and the implementation of effective school sanitation programmes have a greater effect towards promoting the demand for sanitation facilities. Hence, SACOSAN IV Follow-up Activities Sanitation Programme was especially designed to address some of the objectives of the SACOSAN Colombo Declaration. The Ministry of Water Supply & Drainage in collaboration with the National Water Supply & Drainage Board implemented this programme in the selected areas of the country. It was considered the several requests for the sanitation facilities sent from the relevant districts based on their needs of sanitation. The Ministry of Water Supply & Drainage identified those sanitation needs through a need analysis and provided money to the respective districts to implement the sanitation programme. 5
11 3. SCOPE OF THE PROJECT The main scope of this project is to improve the sanitation facilities and achieving total sanitation coverage in the selected PS areas and to promote good hygienic practices among people. Apart from that, providing sanitation facilities to a selected school of each Pradeshiya Sabha (PS) area in respective districts is the other objective of this programme. District PS Area No. of School Toilets 4. THE OBJECTIVES a. To cover the total sanitation (school and community) of the selected Pradeshiya Sabha (PS) areas. b. To aware the community in relation with the good hygiene practices, health and sanitation. c. To uplift the living standards of community for meeting up with their basic needs. 5. GEOGRAPHICAL AREA SERVED No. of Community Toilets Puttalam Arachchikattuwa Hambantota Angunakolapelessa - 22 Weeraketiya Trincomalee Gomarankadawala Kuchchaveli Batticaloa Vakarai Total SACOSAN IV Sanitation programme was especially designed to cover the Sanitation and hygiene aspects of the districts depicted in the map of Sri Lanka in
12 Map of Sri Lanka Sanitation coverage was poor in Vakarai PS area due to the effect of the internalwar and tsunami. Lack of latrine facilities caused many diseases to the people. I am sure that implementation of this Sanitation project by assisting of the NWSDB a lot to reduce the diseases by increasing the practice of the latrine. Mr. J. Jasotharan PHI of Vakarai 7
13 6. ACTIVITY PLAN AND FUND DISBURSEMENT One of the main objectives of the SACOSAN - IV is to achieve total sanitation by providing toilets. With reference to this theme, it was proposed to improve the sanitation facilities of the neediest 300 households and five schools from selected PS area in Trincomalee, Batticaloa, Hambantota and Puttalam districts where the sanitation facilities are not up to the standards to achieve the required sanitation needs. In view of achieving the above goal, GOSL has allocated Rs. 9.0 million to the Ministry of Water Supply & Drainage. It was proposed to implement the programme, based on the following initial activity plan and the sub activities mentioned below. Theme Activity Tentative Budget (Rs. million) 1. Demonstration Project a. Implementation of pilot 4.8 sanitation project b. School WASH Project Advocacy a. Local level seminar/ workshop Publicity 4. Management b. Prepare a report incorporating local level experience and their recommendations Prepare a final report incorporating Sri Lanka's experience, lessons learnt and recommendation to the Government, sector partners as well as to the SACOSAN V Office secretarial work and logistics Total
14 7. THE IMPLEMENTATION MECHANISM 7.1 Beneficiary Identification of the Community In order to implement this programme, the beneficiary identification of the community was carried out based on the neediest households particularly those who did not use latrines at all and those who were using temporary latrines. Apart from that, their level of income, the environment, living conditions, toilet needs and other relevant aspects were taken in to consideration, in order for selection of the beneficiaries. In addition to that, available poverty indicators and other related baseline data were also considered for the beneficiary identification. The respective Rural Water Supply (RWS) units of the NWSDB in selected districts were responsible to select the beneficiaries in collaboration with the Medical Officer of Health (MoH), Public Health Inspectors (PHI), relevant officers attached to local government institutes such as Pradeshiya Sabhas and the relevant officers of Divisional Secretariats. 7.2 Beneficiary Identification of the School The beneficiary identification of the schools too was carried out in a proper way to cater for the burning issues of the field of school sanitation and hygiene. This beneficiary identification was done by the respective RWS Sections of the NWSDB with the help of the zonal education office, MOH office, PHIs with the authorization of Pradeshiya Sabhas. The available data in relation to the sanitation and the sanitation requests from the schools were mainly taken in to account for beneficiary identification. During the selection of schools highly considered were the schools which do not have toilets at all. A need analysis too was carried out to identify the real beneficiary schools. One school from each Pradeshiya Sabha was identified to construct the latrines in selected schools. 9
15 7.3 Implementation Methodology of Community Sanitation Programme Step 1 District RWS Unit was the key implementing agency of this sanitation programme. Identification of beneficiaries for this programme was based on the available data collected on sanitation facilities of the field surveys carried out by relevant district RWS units with the support of selected Pradeshiya Sabhas. The respective public Health Inspector of those PS areas was involved in selecting the beneficiaries, locations for the toilets, recommending and certifying the construction activities before releasing the funds. Step 2 Based on the outcome of the participatory survey, the needs analysis and the request made by the communities, the targeted beneficiary families were selected. The major attention was given to the households particularly those who use temporary latrines. Further, mainly considered were the people who were capable enough to construct the latrines within the sanitation grant of Rs. 18, provided under SACOSAN Programme. Step 3 After the selection of beneficiaries in the community, the NWSDB was able to release the required funds to each regions based on the sanitation proposals forwarded by the relevant RWS units. Step 4 The sanitation grant of Rs. 18, was distributed among the beneficiaries by three installments with the close supervision and monitoring of the construction activities. 10
16 Step 5 Parallel to this implementation process, no. of hygiene awareness programmes were conducted at PS levels to aware the community on best hygiene and health practices. 7.4 Implementation Methodology of School Sanitation Programme Step 1 The respective RWS staff of each districts in collaboration with the relevant Pradeshiya Sabha and the zonal education office initiated this school sanitation programme based on the requests for sanitation facilities and the available statistical data on sanitation. The MOH and the relevant PHIs too were involved with the process of school identification in order to their criteria of selection. Step 2 With reference to the beneficiary selection, the prior attention was given to the schools which do not have proper latrines and the schools which already made their requests for having toilets. Step 3 It was allocated Rs. 100, for each PS area to improve the sanitation facilities in selected five schools. However, for the identification of schools, it was needed to have the approval from the respective Zonal Directors of each PS area. However, the five schools which had got less sanitation facilities were selected based on the needs analysis conducted in the respective areas. Step 4 After selection of the beneficiary schools the NWSDB was initiated to release the required funds to the respective School Development Committees (SDS) based on the sanitation proposals forwarded by the relevant district RWS units. 11
17 Step 5 The sanitation grants released to construct the school latrines were spent with the monitoring and supervision process of respective SDSs and RWS units. The PHIs of the area too made the field visits to observe the construction activities time to time. Step 6 Parallel to the construction activities of the school toilets several hygiene awareness programmes were carried out school level to aware the students on best hygiene and sanitation practices. 8. SOCIAL MOBILIZATION The selected beneficiaries were linked to implement the toilet construction activities through a comprehensive social mobilization process. It was very prominent to see the community was actively engaged with the implementation process. Social mobilization process was very much helpful to mobilize the community and the students to promote the better hygiene and sanitation facilities. Social mobilization process of the community was conducted through the community-based organizations and the community leaders in the area. 12
18 9. HYGIENE AWARENESS PROGRAMME The staff of Rural Water & Sanitation Section of the NWSDB was the key implementing agency of this sanitation programme in collaboration with the Pradeshiya Sabha and the MOH's office. Prior to implementing this sanitation programme, the identified beneficiaries were mobilized through several awareness programmes carried out in the area. Sociologists and the Community Development Officers attached to the District RWS Units were able to mobilize the community in relation with this sanitation programme. They visited the community and schools very often and organized informal as well as formal community gatherings to aware the beneficiaries. Parallel to this, hygiene awareness programmes were conducted at community level as well as school level to educate the community in good hygiene behavioral practice. The MOH and respective PHI's of the areas were the resource persons of this hygiene education and awareness creating programmes. The importance of good hygiene behavioral practices were emphasized here in the meetings and workshops carried out for community and schools. 13
19 10. MONITORING AND EVALUATION Monitoring and Evaluation of the programme will be done through identified mechanisms since the beginning of the programme, during the implementation process and after the implementation at the end in three ways as follows. a. Pre Evaluation - Pre evaluation done before implementation of the programme. b. Continuous Evaluation - Continuous evaluation was carried out while the construction activities and the awareness programmes going on. c. Post Evaluation - Post evaluation was conducted after the completion of the construction activities by the respective RWS units in relevant districts. Monitoring and Evaluation was mainly done by each RWS unit of the NWSDB operating at district level. 14
20 11. VOICE OF BENEFICIARIES Possession of improved sanitary toilet enhances our self esteem and social dignity Sanitation programmes could be well achieved through creating ownership feelings among us 15
21 Implementers should have better understanding of our social and economic status before the commencement of sanitation programme We are capable enough to contribute manually but difficult to finance towards our development Equitable allocation of benefits to our needy people ensuring the transparency causes to minimize challenges against the implementation of rural sanitation programmes 16
22 12. LESSONS LEARNT The SACOSAN IV sanitation programme 2012 was successfully implemented by the district RWS unit with the support of the respective Pradeshiya Sabhas. Even though the beneficiaries were willing to construct their toilets, the bad weather condition was one of the obstacles for the construction activities. Following lessons were learnt during the project implementation process. a. Successful community participation in all stages of project planning, design, implementation, management and operation, with consideration of gender issues. b. Political commitment during the programme was very effective and appreciated. c. Intersectorial coordination, collaboration and cooperation was much benefitted for the process of implementation. d. There was enough room for human resource development in all its forms and at all levels. e. Community empowerment was very prominent during the programme. f. Better hygiene awareness programmes promoted the good sanitation facilities in the area. g. Improved information management system. h. Well developed environment-friendly sanitation programme. 17
23 13. RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSION 13.1 Recommendations It is recommended to utilize the manpower efficiently in the area to construct toilets for households. The manpower was very prominent aspect which was highly appreciated in this programme. Although, most of community were very poor, they tried their best to utilize their manpower for the success of the programme. In the school programme, toilets were constructed by School Development Society in a satisfactory way, which helps to teach the best sanitation practices among the teachers and the students Conclusion The following remedial measures can be considered by the policy makers, and other relevant authorities for the implementation of the future programmes: a. The estimated amount is to be paid to the beneficiaries; if not, the amount for supplying materials will be paid to them. b. Beneficiary identification should be done properly. c. The programme will be carried out with the community participation without interruptions for their usual day-to-day activities. d. The similar programmes should be implemented in the areas where the social issues are highly visible. e. A linking horizontal network with all the stakeholders and relevant authorities in the policy level. f. Intersectorial networking is to be linked with policy level decision making. 18
