Clean latrines at schools help improve attendance and enrolment. With clean, safe facilities there is reduced incidence of disease, which forestalls the risk of school closures due to outbreaks. All of our latrines include a changing room for girls, to ensure a measure of privacy. In our partner school Palukere Primary School, we saw a 20% increase in the number of girls passing their primary leaving exams following a latrine construction project.
The video below provides an overview of our sanitation work, which includes latrine construction.
