Principles of Community led Total Sanitation
• CLTS aims at total sanitation
• Facilitating people to do their own appraisal and sanitation profile
• Based on community self-help, co-operation & social solidarity between rich and poor
• If one person has to defecate in the open, everyone is affected

Open defecation - the reality for many
• Crawling, risk of infection, poor health• Lack of privacy, indignity, dependence
“Before, she had to dig on the ground. Sometimes her clothes got littered with faeces. Her hands got covered in faeces because she used her hands to cover it.”

Stigma and discrimination
Ignorance of the causes of disability or illness can lead to fear, stigma and discrimination
Some families hide disabled family members
“They refused me to enter a toilet. I have started being embarrassed of my disability”

Problems with the way programmes are delivered
• Lack of consultation and participation
• Lack of information about different options - people don’t know what is possible
• Can lead to inappropriate design or location of facilities
Does this latrine look accessible for everyone?

So what do we need to do as part of the CLTS process to help people think up these kind of solutions?

Accessibility and safety audits
“I don’t like leaving the toilet door open when I use the toilet, but the wheelchair blocks the door”

Challenge misconceptions
Be alert to ignorance of the causes or nature of disabilities and be prepared to correct these.
By involving disabled people as active participants and contributors - rather than as helpless recipients of a project - family and community can see them in a completely new light.
“One [member of staff] described how his perceptions of disabled people have changed completely. This has transformed his, and his family’s engagement with a disabled relative.”
