ORBIS to Build and Repair Latrines for Communities
Ethiopia
Health
Gamo Gofa, Konso and Derashe are overpopulated areas where it is difficult to establish and maintain proper sanitation facilities. These poor sanitary conditions mean that bacteria spread quickly and trachoma infections are common. Open field defecation around the periphery of the villages was a common phenomenon in the area until recently. By repairing and building latrines, ORBIS has improved sanitation facilities and the effect this has on reducing the transmission of trachoma is significant.
