By 6 September 2016, a single document with all questions and answers will be made publicly available on this webpage. About 3ie’s Promoting Latrine Use in Rural India Thematic Window Open defecation (OD) is a widespread and persistent health challenge in India. According to the World Health Organisation and UNICEF (2015), almost 60 per cent of the global population that practises OD is located in India. In rural India, 90 per cent of households do not own a latrine, and 61 per cent of individuals defecate in the open. The health consequences of OD are long lasting and life threatening. As per the World Bank (2006), OD’s economic consequences are estimated to be around US$53.8 billion or about 6.4 per cent of GDP.
Even though latrine use has widely been cited in the mass media as a key factor for reducing OD, very few quantitative studies have focused on latrine use as a primary or secondary outcome. To address this knowledge gap in research, 3ie’s Promoting Latrine Use in Rural India Thematic Window will investigate multidimensional supply and demand factors influencing latrine use.
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has provided funding support for this thematic window. http://www.3ieimpact.org/en/funding/thematic-window/promoting-latrine-use-rural-india-thematic-window/
