| Abstract | This manual produced on behalf of South Africa's National Sanitation Co-ordination Office (NaSCO), aims to be a simple guideline for planners, consultants and school governing bodies on the sound provision of sanitation facilities. It only discusses the Ventilated Improved Pit (VIP) latrine, as this is seen as being affordable, robust, simple to build, easy to maintain and not requiring a reliable water supply. This makes it particularly appropriate for most rural and peri-urban situations. These guidelines also include sections on the provision of hand washing facilities and urinals. |
