The role of community agents and masons to improve sanitation in rural Haiti Project evaluation: the influence of community agents and masons on the purchase and use of latrines in rural Haiti CAWST,

The sanitation approach implemented by Helvetas Haiti in Petit Goave and Forêt-des-Pins has resulted in the purchase and use of unsubsidized latrines. Helvetas Haiti would like to: capitalize on the experience, replicate the approach in other areas in Haiti, and share the approach both internally and externally, with the aim of ultimately improving people’s access to and use of sustainable sanitation.

The study that Helvetas Haiti commissioned from CAWST was, therefore, exploratory in nature. The purpose was to identify factors, particularly the influence of community agents and masons, and any interactions between them, that influenced the purchase and use of latrines by households in the two communities.
