The SHAW experience in Indonesia: The multi-stakeholder approach to sustainable sanitation and hygiene

摘要

Caring for sanitation is the basis of healthy living for all in the community, but in general it is anindividual responsibility. From the late 1990s, the CLTS (Community Led Total Sanitation) approachshowed that people can become aware of why sanitation is important for them and their communit. Theycan be triggered to accomplish non-subsidized actions towards an Open Defecation Free (ODF)environment. The Community Based Total Sanitation (STBM) strategy was initiated in 2008 by theGovernment of Indonesia (GOI). It is a “total sanitation and hygiene” approach as a next generation toCLTS. The Sanitation, Hygiene and Water (SHAW) Programme is the first in Indonesia to apply STBM atlarge scale and had to develop an approach to make it work. After 4 years, we reached nearly 1 millionpeople, and a new generation of issues comes up and needs to be solved.
