On the ground<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Inadequate toilets, particularly for girls in higher\u2011education institutions, contribute to absenteeism and reduced academic participation.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bhiwadi is located in the Tijara block (tehsil) of the Khairthal\u2013Tijara district in Rajasthan. The district was created in 2023 following the administrative reorganisation of the former Alwar district.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over time, Bhiwadi has become one of Rajasthan\u2019s major industrial centres and forms part of the National Capital Region (NCR). It lies approximately 40\u201345 km from Gurugram and about 90 km from Jaipur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the past two decades, the city has experienced rapid industrial and urban growth. More than 2,500 industries \u2014 small, medium and large \u2014 operate in sectors such as manufacturing, automotive, pharmaceuticals, textiles and steel. This expansion has attracted a large migrant population, increasing demand for housing, education, healthcare and basic services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Industrial growth has boosted enrolment at Government Girls College and Baba Mohanram Kissan Government College in Santhalka, creating an opportunity to strengthen educational infrastructure, particularly sanitation facilities, in line with Swachh Vidyalaya norms and recommended student\u2011to\u2011latrine ratios.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Current facilities require urgent attention: construction of new toilets for women and rehabilitation of damaged or non\u2011functional units. Their present condition compromises students\u2019 health, dignity, safety and educational well\u2011being.
Installing filtration systems ensures safe drinking water free of contaminants, improving the health of students and staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inadequate toilets discourage use, especially among girls, and may contribute to absenteeism and reduced academic participation.
The lack of handwashing stations increases the risk of poor hygiene, which favours the spread of waterborne diseases, infections, and other health issues. These challenges affect attendance, concentration and academic outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Installing adequate handwashing stations is essential to reduce these risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In detail<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Implementation process:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Installation of handwashing stations and sanitation facilities<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Construction and rehabilitation of sanitation facilities<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Menstrual Hygiene Management (MHM) Laboratories<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Awareness campaigns<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Sustainability prospects<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Strengthening Management Committees plays a crucial role in maintaining facilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Empowered committees participate in decision\u2011making on maintenance and improvement of infrastructure, supervise the appropriate use of resources, and ensure the upkeep of facilities such as handwashing stations and toilets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Their involvement in planning, monitoring, and maintenance helps establish sustainable practices and ensures a clean, healthy educational environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The organisation has a highly skilled team in programme management, monitoring and evaluation, knowledge management, advocacy, infrastructure construction and technical support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The team updates its knowledge through workshops, seminars and learning processes derived from programmes implemented and evaluated at national and international levels, strengthening competencies in evidence\u2011based evaluation, technical design, innovation and sustainable approaches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":43771,"template":"","class_list":["post-43788","waw_project","type-waw_project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nWater and Sanitation Facilities and Hygiene Education in Higher\u2011Education Institutions in Bhiwadi - We Are Water<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wearewater.org\/br\/projects\/water-and-sanitation-facilities-and-hygiene-education-in-higher%e2%80%91education-institutions-in-bhiwadi\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Water and Sanitation Facilities and Hygiene Education in Higher\u2011Education Institutions in Bhiwadi - We Are Water\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"On the ground Inadequate toilets, particularly for girls in higher\u2011education institutions, contribute to absenteeism and reduced academic participation.
