There are not enough bathrooms in schools, which causes open defecation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a scarcity of water required for drinking and domestic purposes in the villages of Janalagudem, Balapalathippa, Pedda Gummadapuram and Yerrakunta, and women have to walk for a mile or two to fetch the water which is just sufficient for cooking and drinking. Since sufficient quantity of water is not available, the communities hardly take bath and wash their clothes which are causing them the health hazards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Concerning the Government schools at Bandi Atmakur and Venkatapuram, there is no access for protected drinking water and the health conditions of the students are adversely affected. Though midday meal is provided to them every day by the Government of Andhra Pradesh, discordantly, the safe drinking water is not served. They have to drink locally available water which is mostly contaminated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> With regard to sanitation, there are no sufficient toilets for the students in the Government schools at Y.Kothapalli and Santha Juturu. Due to this situation, open defecation is taking place in the school premises which poses a threat to the health of students and a harm for the environment as well as humiliation especially for the girls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"470\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wearewater.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wash-project-sesion_336462-1024x470.jpg\" alt=\"Wash project sesi\u00f3n\" class=\"wp-image-2530\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wearewater.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wash-project-sesion_336462-1024x470.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.wearewater.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wash-project-sesion_336462-300x138.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wearewater.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wash-project-sesion_336462-768x353.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wearewater.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wash-project-sesion_336462-600x276.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.wearewater.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/wash-project-sesion_336462.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In detail<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The proposed activities include the development of water supply infrastructures in four villages and setting up of five RO plants in five schools, as well as the construction of six toilet complexes in three schools. RDT implements this project without engaging any Civil Contractors, but by involving its Technical Team and gives utmost importance for the quality of work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition, meetings, workshops and visits would be organized with the Community Development Committees (CDC) and student representatives to enable them to understand the importance of water and sanitation and their future maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Perspectives of sustainability<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As RDT has been working in these villages for last ten years and will continue to work in future also, effective follow up and hand holding support will be given in the post project period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While implementing the project, the people, student representatives and school authorities will be involved in every stage. Apart, capacity building workshops and meetings would be conducted to enhance the awareness.  After completion of the project, it will be handed over to the Community Development Committees and School Authorities by taking a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) incorporating all necessary clauses. Later, the Community Development Committees and School Authorities will take care of the maintenance with the help of local governments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1830,"template":"","class_list":["post-1829","waw_project","type-waw_project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Water, Sanitation and Hygiene in eight villages of Kurnool District, Andhra Pradesh, India - 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\/en-in\/projects\/water-sanitation-and-hygiene-in-eight-villages-of-kurnool-district-andhra-pradesh-india\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Water, Sanitation and Hygiene in eight villages of Kurnool District, Andhra Pradesh, India - We Are Water\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"On the ground The villages and their schools do not have enough drinking water, and women must walk up to three kilometres to get it.
