Why Latrines?

We are using household latrines in Agyementi as apart of the hygiene and sanitation promotion campaign.  The people of the village will decided what kind of latrines best suite their needs and financial circumstances.

We promote household latrines over community ones because of the increased privacy, clear indication of maintenance responsibility, and more frequent usage due to convenience.
