The Ministry of Health and Medical Services (MHMS) has successfully completed a week long Community-Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) training for local facilitators in Makira Ulawa Province.
The program aims to raise awareness on the importance of sanitation and trigger households to immediately build their own sanitation facilities and discourage defecating in the open.
Director of Environmental Health, Mr. Tom Nanau, highlighted, the CLTS program came about due to the new Rural Water, Sanitation and Hygiene policy endorsed by Cabinet in 2014.
