Through this final report we want to share with all of you, the main conclusions of the project.
- The project managed to achieve most of the expected results for the benefit of the population of the municipality of Independencia
- Promoting healthy practices in safe water consumption, hand washing and proper use of bathrooms in the educational unit and community, has considerable increased regarding data baseline.
- The method of disinfecting water that was more welcome was the SODIS due to the advantages of other method like chlorate water. Because it’s easy to do,does not require much effort and the water has a better taste
- Construction, renovation and maintenance of bathrooms in educational units, contributed to achieve better practices in their proper use.
- Recreational and creative activities organized by the District Education Directorate enabled the positioning of the HASS theme in the Municipality and project visibility.
- The systematic monitoring by teachers in schools contributed to the sustained quality of handwashing practices, use of safe water and proper use of the bathrooms.
These are some of the conclusion of the Project at the same time, to have a sustainable project it’s really important to received feedbacks of the community itself. Meanwhile, we have listed some recommendation:
- In 2016, The Sodis Fundación must provide some technical support, post project monitoring in order to support, strengthen and give continuity to the work done
- Only building portable taps of disposable bottles for hand washing is not sustainable, it is important to think of a more stable and sustainable construction such as sinks according to the number of students per schools
Due this final report we want to thanks everyone who read us and helped us. We are happy that the project reached almost every objectives we planned. We are aware that only the time will tell us if our work, our implication has changed life.
Now the student, the teachers, the families of Indenpendencia have the knowledge and the capacity to improve their life style !
Many many thanks !!
With warm greetings from the whole project team,
