Latrines


Private latrine producers in Bangladesh
A social mobilisation campaign for sanitation has created a market for latrines in Bangladesh; they are sold for prestige, comfort and privacy, and last but not least have a very good impact on health. The market creation has allowed 6‘000 private workshops to produce latrines and compete with subsidised government latrine production centres. They produce over 1 million latrines per year and have increased coverage considerably.
