Toilet Construction Support Project

Our main objective is providing access to those who suffer from lack of proper sanitation and toilets. The Public Toilet Building Campaign targets developing countries designated by UN in which the majority of the population lacks access to toilet facilities. Working in collaboration with governments, NGOs, respective toilet associations, or companies, World Toilet Association plans, designs, and builds toilets in the selected countries. Toilet facilities tailored to the climates, culture, traditions and level of income of the target districts, are built in public places such as tourist attractions, schools, and parks. The primary goal is to build facilities that can be continuously used and maintained by community. Representative groups may submit proposals on behalf of countries in need. Proposals and guidelines are available on our website.

Toilets are the key to sanitation. 40% of the world population lacks proper sanitation facilities. Due to unsafe drinking water and sanitation-related infectious diseases such as typhoid, cholera, diarrhea, malaria, etc, two million people lose their lives each year.
Through toilets, the WTA hopes to save people affected by poor sanitation. The WTA`s first step to improve sanitation worldwide is to build toilets in developing countries.
→ We started the projects with 6 countries in Asia (Indonesia ►Laos ► Cambodia ► China ► Mongolia ► Pakistan) and 4 countries in Africa (Ghana ►Cameroon ►Kenya ► South Africa

Another one of WTA's 2008 Project was carried out in this secondary school located in the Phalaborwa Village, Limpopo Province. For the student population of 1,000, the number of the existing toilets was insufficient. The old toilet facilities were also outdated. The weather in this area is relatively dry and the water supply was inadequate. Therefore, children in this area were not used to washing their hands after using the toilets. Children were exposed to contagious diseases caused by insanitary water and such toilet situation subjected them to the danger of other problems.

The public toilet facilities built as a WTA's 2008 project, reflected the water shortage situation in the area and waterless toilets were provided with the consideration of 4:6 ratio of the male/female student population. The toilets were separated for male and female use. It is expected that the sufficient spaces allocated for them to wash their hands after using the toilets will contribute greatly to the health maintenance of the students.
