Studies have shown that agencies are failing to properly consult or collect and act on feedback from the users of the latrines they build, leading many people – especially women and girls – to stop using those latrines as they find them inaccessible, unsuitable and/or unsafe. Consequently, this increases public health risks in emergency situations.
To address this, the Oxfam WASH team has developed a series of communications tools that seek to promote best practices in sanitation and ultimately provide universal guidance for the benefit of the sector.
