The diagram clearly depicts how excreta flows from user interface to the final disposal. Mapping excreta of a city is increasingly used to analyse the sanitation in urban areas. An excreta flow diagram (also often described as shit flow diagram), can help to achieve this by offering a new and innovative way to engage sanitation experts, political leaders and civil society in a coordinated - discussions about excreta management in their city. Project Location: Lakhimpur, Uttar Pradesh • As per census data year 2011 the population of Lakhimpur City is 151999 and total area is 10.10 Sq km within the Terai lowlands at the base of the Himalayas, with several rivers and lush green vegetation and situated between 27.6° and 28.6° north latitude and 80.34° and 81.30° east longitudes. • Water supply to HH is generally from the underground water through motorized pumps. • The city is famous for its Kheri plantation and hence named as Lakhimpur kheri . • The annual average rainfall in Lakhimpur Kheri is 1,085.3 millimeters (42.73 in) , mostly in the monsoon months (July to September).

Study Methodology The main task of a baseline study is collecting various data and information. The variation of data types includes details of technical systems from household systems up to centralised systems, information about household situations, as well as understanding of the institutional set-up and socio-economic dynamics. The preparation phase of the study includes identifying all stakeholders and working out a list of all required data and how the data may be obtained. Much data was collected through interviews with households, key persons from institutions, municipal, district, or state authorities. Another source of information and data was obtained by direct observation and mapping techniques. The step-wise methodology is given below: • Collect relevant secondary data of the cities before the site visit • Conduct Key Informant Interviews (KII) and Focussed Group Discussion (FGD) • Collect relevant data using methodology recommended by SFD promotion initiative and discussed with CSE team • Conduct random household survey to collect relevant information on ground • Document field observation through clicking good quality pictures (landscape mode preferred), writing daily report and feeding relevant information in the google sheet • Analyse collected data in the excel sheets (in shared format) • Develop SFD graphic and develop a draft factsheet • Write and publish SFD lite report for the designated city in close coordination with CSE personnel Project Timeline S.

As a first step of improvement the water flowing in the drains should be carefully controlled. • There is no FSTP or STP in the city. Construction of a FSTP is under process, currently its construction which has achieved 25 percent of its completion. This should be done as earliest as possible to limit the ongoing ground water contamination. • Location of FSTP is outside the city and at the low lying plain, hence its operation could be affected during monsoon period. So precautionary measures must be taken for the same • Damaged drains should be repaired as quickly as possible to hinder further damage and health risk and the above-mentioned hot spots need to be tended so that the city moves from defecation to disposal or end-use. The prepared SFD report will deliver the sanitation context of the city or town and the data sources used for the assessment. Deliverables • Post travel report after the competition of survey including details of stakeholders met including daily report • Random Household Survey data in excel sheet and analysis of data excel sheet • Factsheet data in excel sheet • Good quality pictures across the chain in Google Drive • SFD graphic file and other relevant images in png format • SFD Factsheet and SFD lite report OUTLINE OF WATER SMART SOLUTION PROJECTS BY COHORT 2.0 3 2.0 WATER SMART SOLUTION PROJECT OUTLINE BY AJAY KUMAR Project Title Including the Excluded: Providing Access to Water to Person with Disabilities Background Access to safe and clean water and sanitation facilities is a basic right of all people, including people with disabilities, the denial of which can have serious implications on their well-being. For example, inaccessible water and toilet facilities are major contributing factors for school dropout among children with disabilities. The access to clean water and basic sanitation is a right guaranteed under the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (PwDs). Even, Article14, ‘Right to Equality’ and Article 21 ‘Right to Life’ of Indian constitution has guaranteed these rights for every citizen of India. There are 1028 PwDs in 20 G.P of 3 blocks Tihidi, Chandabali & Dhamnagar
