Innovative approaches to improve household sanitation in peri-urban communities

Through the Western Pacific Sanitation Marketing & Innovation Program funded by the Australian Civil Society WASH Fund, Live & Learn improved sanitation in seven informal peri-urban settlements in the Suva-Nausouri area of Fiji through the establishment of a Community Based Sanitation Market to sell affordable sanitation products. The CBSM was registered in June 2016 as a partnership business and was the first ever community owned sanitation marketing business in Fiji. This case study report shares the benefits for women and the community achieved through this innovative approach.
