Youth & WASH
Project:
CEE initiated Youth
& WASH Project was supported by UNICEF. An
action research was carried out by a SAYEN club youth member on
public sanitation facilities in some commercial areas of Ahmedabad.
Lack of proper sanitation is a major cause for concern in a modern
city. The study sought to determine the need of sanitation
facilities in the city and gauge the awareness levels of citizens.
The
project aimed to involve the community and youth in efforts to
increase awareness of sanitation and hygiene issues, ASH and SAYEN
developed many short-term Water, Sanitation and Hygiene related
research projects to be carried out in the field by youth and then
field-testing the same.
In
order to reach out to maximum youth members in South Asia, WASH
supported SAYEN in uploading the outcomes of all the above efforts
on the SAYEN website, having the facility to exchange ideas on WASH
related issues.
WASH
and Youth for Environment (YEN) group organised a one-month
CLEANGREEN drive. This involved subprojects on water, sanitation and
hygiene.
