To reduce open defecation, many implementers use the intervention strategies of Community-Led Total Sanitation (CLTS), which focuses on initial latrine construction rather than ongoing latrine maintenance, repair and rebuilding. However using data from a cross-sectional survey, this article shows how physical, personal, social context and psychosocial factors from the RANAS model (risks, attitudes, norms, abilities, and self-regulation) are associated with participation in CLTS interventions, and how these factors connect to ongoing latrine maintenance and rebuilding.

IWMI’s research found that farmers who received longer training in water governance and management tended to participate more actively in their WUAs than farmers who were trained over relatively short periods of time.

Despite the importance and omnipresent issue of MHM in any emergency context, and the potential for cross‑sectoral links of MHM within the cluster system, there is a lack of policy and agency guidelines to support these sectors to conduct a holistic MHM response
