Dear Brian Luenow

For 20 people -1 Toilet 

Separate, internally lockable toilets for women and men are available in public places, such as markets, distribution centres, health centres, schools, etc.

Toilets are no more than 50 metres from dwellings.

Use of toilets is arranged by household(s) and/or segregated by sex 

People wash their hands after using toilets and before eating and food preparation 

Guidance notes

Acceptable facilities: Successful excreta disposal programmes depend on an understanding of people’s varied needs and their participation. It may not be possible to make all toilets acceptable to all groups. Special toilets may need to be constructed for children, older people and persons with disabilities, e.g. toilets with seats or hand rails or provision of bed pans, potties or commodes. The type of sanitation facility adopted depends on the time of the intervention, the preferences and cultural habits of the intended users, the existing infrastructure, the availability of water (for flushing and water seals), the soil formation and the availability of construction materials. Different excreta disposal types for different phases of a disaster response are listed in the table below.

Public toilets: In public places, toilets are provided with established systems for proper and regular cleaning and maintenance. Disaggregated population data are used to plan the number of women’s cubicles to men’s using an approximate ration of 3:1. Where possible, urinals should be providedFamily toilets: Family toilets are the preferred option where possible. 

One toilet for a maximum of 20 people should be the target. Where there are no existing toilets, it is possible to start with one for 50 people and lowering the number of users to 20 as soon as possible. In some circumstances, space limitations make it impossible to meet these figures. In such cases, advocate strongly for extra space. However, it should be remembered that the primary aim is to provide and maintain an environment free from human faeces.
