Design Competition for Individual Household Toilets in Small Houses in Slum Areas: Designs by CWAS team
October 2021
An individual household toilet (IHHT) is important to meet the Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) needs of women and adolescent girls and also benefit the elderly and differently-abled, as they can avoid travel to a community toilet, especially during nights. The challenge focused on encouraging innovative ideas and appropriate measures to be adopted in order to achieve access to individual household toilets in vulnerable areas. A series of layouts and pictures of houses located in the slums as shown here were provided to CWAS team members to design appropriate toilet solutions. The collated presentations show the CWAS team’s innovative design efforts.
