Abstract |
In rural Africa, a good toilet, together with a safe reliable water supply and the practice of good personal hygiene can do much to improve personal and family health and wellbeing. This booklet describes how to make a simple, low cost, affordable pit toilet, easy to build and to maintain and relatively free of odours and flies. Builders and artisans are not required, once the householder has learned the basic methods of construction. |
