Abstract
While Community-Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) is a relative success in a growing number of countries, there are also difficulties in assuring all community members can build and use toilets. This paper draws on experiences of IRC International Water and Sanitation Centre and its partners in strengthening inclusiveness and sustainability in CLTS interventions. It presents practical measures to strengthen gender and poverty equity, community-based monitoring and capacity development for community institutions and the local private sector.Innovations pratiques pour le renforcement de l'assainissement total porté par la communauté (ATPC) : expériences asiatiques sélectionnéesSi l'assainissement total porté par la communauté (ATPC) remporte un succès relatif dans un nombre croissant de pays, il y a aussi des difficultés au moment de parvenir à l'équité et de soutenir l'élan et les résultats. Cette note pratique se base sur les expériences d'IRC International Water and Sanitation Centre et de ses partenaires en matière de renforcement du caractère inclusif, de la durabilité et du renforcement des capacités dans les interventions d'ATPC. Elle recommande l'intégration de l'équité entre les femmes et les hommes et en faveur des pauvres dans les méthodes participatives, ainsi que l'utilisation du suivi mené par la communauté et du développement des capacités des services de soutien communautaires pour que tous les membres de la communauté bénéficient d'un accès équitable accru et soient durablement débarrassés de la défécation en plein air.Inovações práticas para fortalecer o Saneamento Total Liderado pela Comunidade: experiência selecionada da ÁsiaEmbora o Saneamento Total Liderado pela Comunidade (CLTS) seja relativamente bem-sucedido em um número crescente de países, há também dificuldades para se alcançar equidade e manter o ímpeto e os resultados. Esta nota prática baseia-se em experiências do Centro Internacional de Água e Saneamento IRC e de seus parceiros em relação a fortalecer a inclusão, sustentabilidade e capacitação nas intervenções de CLTS. Ela recomenda a integração da equidade de gênero e das pessoas pobres em métodos participativos, assim como utilizar o monitoramento baseado na comunidade e desenvolvimento de capacidade de serviços de apoio da comunidade para aumentar o acesso equitativo e o abandono permanente do costume de se defecar em céu aberto para todos membros da comunidade.Innovaciones prácticas para fortalecer el Saneamiento Total Comunitario: experiencias de AsiaSi bien el Saneamiento Total Comunitario (STC) goza de un éxito relativo en un número de países cada vez mayor, también existen dificultades para alcanzar la equidad y mantener los avances y resultados. Esta nota práctica se centra en los aprendizajes del Centro Internacional para el Agua y el Saneamiento de la CRI y de sus contrapartes, derivados del fortalecimiento de la inclusión, la sostenibilidad y la creación de habilidades en intervenciones de STC. Sus recomendaciones incluyen integrar la equidad de género y para los pobres mediante métodos participativos, el monitoreo comunitario y el desarrollo de capacidades para servicios de apoyo comunitarios, a fin de aumentar el acceso equitativo para todos los integrantes de la comunidad y de erradicar para siempre el fecalismo al aire libre.
