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

Laos

 Organization Institution:Lao Culture Public Toilet Association
Completion Date: July 2009

Phiawat primary and secondary school where the WTA’s public toilet project was carried out is located in the capital city of Vientiane and its student population is about 1,300. Until the WTA public toilet facilities were constructed, the total number of the toilets in the school barely reached 20 despite the large student population. The existing toilets were very dilapidated and additional toilets were desperately needed.

Within the vicinities of the school where toilets were constructed by the WTA, there are many public facilities such as a bus terminal, a hospital, etc. where many tourists visiting Laos can now have access to these toilets as well. The public toilet facilities also have a multi-purpose room for the convenience of the handicapped and their families.
