1) The Godam Sahi slum community in Bhubaneswar, India decided to end open defecation and build toilets in every household. Previously, the community lacked toilets and used open fields.
2) Within 5 months of the commitment to end open defecation, every single household built a toilet. The community president was surprised by the speed of this change in behavior.
3) Community members now understand the health consequences of open defecation and are proud to have their own toilets. Women especially feel safer with access to toilets rather than having to use open fields.

Patna City Plastic Waste Management brochure Arvind kumar
UNDP India in collaboration with Hindustan Coca Cola Beverages Pvt. Ltd. (HCCBPL) & Patna Municipal Corporation has established a Plastic Waste Management & Processing plant at Gardani Bagh . This initiative is designed to minimize the impacts and risks to environment and human health, by enhancing sustainable Plastic Waste Management practices, through a socio-technical model (segregation/collection/ recycling).
The project’s main objective is to establish a more sustainable community led approach for integrated plastic waste management and efficient recycling. The systematic approach will also address better social security measures, job creation and impact livelihoods for the informal sector engagements. Mainstreaming Safai Sathis (waste pickers) will open new opportunities and lead to more sustainable ways of collection, segregation, processing and recycling of plastics. The project also introduces technology applications to integrate the waste supply value chain and build Cloud based digital governance and traceability.
