Suggestions for strengthening Community-Led Total Sanitation

While Community-Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) is a relative success in a growing number of countries, there are also some difficulties in sustaining the momentum and results with equity: freedom from open defecation, safe and durable toilets, hygienic use of toilets etc. There are also possibilities to include gender on equity and the poor more structurally than is currently done.
