The Smile Toilet Project is a partnership between SawaYume Kenya, Japan Habitat Association, and the County Government of Homabay Ministry of Health. The project aims to provide sustainable sanitation options to rural communities in Homabay County, Kenya through Community Led Total Sanitation and sanitation marketing activities. A baseline survey found that 35% of households in the target village lacked latrines. The project trained masons, conducted CLTS activities, and established microfinance groups to help households construct and upgrade latrines. As a result, 97% of households now have functional latrines and hand washing practices have improved.

Open Defecation in India- A serious issuePradyumna
The serious prevailing issue in India- Open Defecation. People are defecating at outskirts of their villages and while traveling through villages, one can feel the bad odour surrounding there. The open defecation causes soil pollution and there-by, when washed away with water, causes water pollution. Government of India started many campaigns, one among them is "Swachch Bharat Abhiyan" in order to reduce open defecation. People are committing dark crimes on women when they are out for defecating. People should be aware of the ill effects to the environment due to Open Defecation.

Behavior Change: The Key to Ending Open Defecation (Srikanth)Rotary International
What if you had no place to “go?” One billion people
don’t have access to toilets, and are therefore left with no
choice but to defacate outside, often without privacy. This
practice spreads disease and contaminates drinking water.

PepsiCo: Delivering Access to Safe Water through PartnershipsSustainable Brands
In 2013, Pepsi announced that by teaming up with partners around the globe, it had provided access to safe water for more than three million people, meeting that goal more than two years ahead of schedule. Since then, it has doubled the original goal, and now intends to provide access to six million people by the end of 2015 through partnerships.
An important part of holistic water stewardship is advocacy through partnership. PepsiCo has formed strategic alliances with organizations including the United Nations Global Compact’s CEO Water Mandate, the World Business Council for Sustainable Development Water Leadership Group, the U.S. Water Alliance, Cambridge University, and many more.
In addition to PepsiCo’s business initiatives in key geographies, collaboration with a portfolio of water partners is instrumental to its progress. By seeking out and leveraging the strengths of its water partners, PepsiCo and the PepsiCo Foundation support and enable creative new strategies that achieve measurable and sustainable progress in the fight to alleviate water insecurity and provide access to safe water.
These initiatives include water conservation, distribution, purification, and hygiene for underserved communities in China, India, Mali, Brazil, Colombia and other Latin American countries. Statements of intent inspire and motivate, but effective action on the ground is where change happens. The greatest resource in this effort centers on key collaborations with a diverse and innovative core of water partners.

As we continue to embrace these innovations, we move one step closer to the dream of a clean India, where every citizen has access to clean and safe sanitation facilities. The impact of these innovations goes beyond infrastructure; they transform communities and lives, improving health, dignity, and overall well-being. In the pursuit of this noble mission, we must acknowledge the remarkable innovations that are helping us achieve a clean India. Together, with the Indian Sanitation Coalition, we can make it happen.
Changing Behavior What Does It Mean and How Do We Do It (2 of 3)Rotary International
Wells, toilets, water towers, and pipelines. Even the
well-designed elements of Rotary water, sanitation, and
hygiene (WASH) projects can fail if people don’t use
them. There are many reasons people might hesitate
to use a communal toilet. It’s important to understand
the reasons before you build the toilet. Learn about
behavior change and its role in WASH programs, how it’s
connected with culture and community values, and how
to incorporate it into your WASH projects and measure
the outcomes.

It is my great privilege to present the 2013 Momentum for Change Lighthouse Activities! These 17 activities are shining examples of climate action around the world. They demonstrate what happens when innovation and passion come together to address the biggest challenge of our time.
This year’s activities touch on three focus areas:
Women for Results: recognizing the critical leadership and participation of women in addressing climate change. This focus area is implemented with the generous support of The Rockefeller Foundation.
Urban Poor: recognizing climate action that improves the lives of impoverished people in urban communities. This focus area is implemented with the generous support of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
Financing for Climate Friendly Investment: recognizing successful and innovative climate-smart activities. This focus area is implemented in partnership with the World Economic Forum.
I am convinced that this year’s Lighthouse Activities will inspire you and help you take practical ideas for action to your communities. Each of us has a role to play in meeting the climate challenge, and sharing success helps raise ambition and scale up the global commitment to act on climate change.
Sincerely,
Christiana Figueres | UNFCCC Executive Secretary

2. INTRODUCTION
Smile latrine project is a partnership between SawaYume
Kenya, Japan Habitat Association ( JHA) and the County
Government of Homabay Ministry of Health.
Our aim is to provide sustainable sanitation options to all
Our target population are the people at the bottom of the
pyramid that live in rural and peri-urban areas of Kenya
We currently carry out Community Led Total Sanitation
(CLTS) and Sanitation Marketing activities in Homabay
County
3. http://www.un.org/sustainable
development/water-and-
sanitation/
By 2030, achieve access to
adequate and equitable sanitation
and hygiene for all and end open
defecation, paying special attention
to the needs of women and girls and
those in vulnerable situations
Support and strengthen the
participation of local
communities in improving
water and sanitation
management
Targets
4. Rural Sanitation Situation in Kenya
47% of Rural dwellers in Kenya have no access
to improved sanitation
17 % share latrines
16% are open defecators (using bush or fields)
Kenya has only allocated 0.2 percent of
GDP to sanitation as compared to the
global target of 0.9 percent and eThekwini
Declaration commitment of at least 0.5
percent of GDP to sanitation and
hygiene
Rate of attainment of the universal accessto
improved sanitation 0.75%
At this rate it would take us 133 years to
achieve our target
5. Impact of poor sanitation in Kenya
Unsafewater and sanitation (5.3 percent) is the second
leading riskfactorand contributor to all mortality (deaths) and
morbidity burden (DALY) in Kenya 1
More than 50% of the population, is at risk of diseases and death,
attributable to unsafe water and sanitation
Diarrheal diseases contributes to at least 40% of deaths
among under-five children. 2
Economically, Kenya loses an estimated KES 27 billion (USD
365 million) annually ( 1% GDP) due to poor sanitation. Open
defecation costs Kenya US$ 88 millionper year. 3

16. Smile Toilet Project Intervention
One and a half years ago……..
With the generous support of Japan Habitat Association. We
launched the smile latrine project in Kamolo Village Homa Bay
County to help communities without latrines construct and use
their own latrines.
We conducted a baseline survey of the situation of the village
targeting 200 households.
From the survey only 65% had functional latrines, 35% were
either defecating in bush or sharing with the neighbors
Among the 65% of the households that had latrines, only 45%
were satisfied with the latrines and would use them constantly
83% reported the problem of bad smell and houseflies from the
latrine
About 60% of the surveyed households reported that at least one
or more of the occupants had diarrhea in the previous one month.
17. Smile Latrine Project
Smile Toilet project combines community led total
sanitation strategies with sanitation marketing to
improve the sanitation situation in the rural
communities
Project components
Community led total sanitation
Sanitation Marketing
Micro-financing and savings
18. Community Led Total Sanitation (CLTS)
Based on the findings of the baseline we conducted community led total sanitation to sensitize the households
on the importance of building and using their own latrines.
The training emphasized on behavior and attitude change as key to achieving improved sanitation
Community Mobilization for
Triggering
Demonstration of Fecal
Contamination
Reflection and disgust at the thought
of eating feaces
19. Advocacy for sanitation

people on the importance of toilets
20. Round Slabs
Square slabs
We train masons to make concrete slabs that are durable, affordable, easy to clean and are re-usable.
We use Lixil’s Sato Pan and stool that eliminates bad smell and prevents houseflies from accessing the pit
Sato Stools allows individuals to sit in the latrine
We provide hand washing cans and train communities on how to make and use tippy tap

24. Income Improvement and Micro Finance Groups
To boost economic income of households we use the shed net technology to grow high impact vegetables that
may be used for family consumption and for sale.
We have set up micro finance groups to help members save and borrow money to invest in sanitation facilities.
Members are grouped in five and each saves Kshs 100 every week towards latrine construction or upgrading.
Every month they are able to save Kshs 2500 which is then used to provide a latrine slab to one of the members.
Within 5 months all the five members were able to improve their latrines.

25. Project Achievement After Project
97% of the village households have functional
latrines
Advocacy for sanitation has made the county
government to begin constructing public
toilets in two market places that previously
had none
Cleaner environment without the previously
rampant sighting of openly defecated feces.
Children now find it easier to go to the latrines
Hand washing after visiting the latrine is
taking root. About 63 % of households now
have hand washing cans up from 31% from the
baseline survey.
30. Next Steps/ Sustainability Plans
We are now in the process of designing a modern latrine model suitable for
rural communities including both households and schools
We are looking for micro-finance institutions to help us fund the investments
in water and sanitation to enable rural communities have their dream
sanitary facilities through flexible means of payments ( Installments).
To operationalize sanitation centers that stock all the sanitation products
and have well trained staff that provide relevant information on the
available and suitable improved sanitation options for rural communities
To provide desludging and waste treatment services to convert waste
resources into useful products.
