Project Commences to Improve Household Toilets!

Many people living in Jordan’s Za’atari Refugee Camp have begun installing toilets for their dwellings. Some people install the toilets themselves, while others ask for help from other refugees who have the skills to complete the task. As a result, only a few people are coming to use the public toilet facilities built by support groups several years ago. Public toilets here are approaching the end of their duties.

Meanwhile, there are families who remain unable to have a household toilet due to a lack of skills and money. Moreover, even if a household toilet has been installed, many of these facilities consist of just a hole in the floor, with no walls around it, no windows for a cross-breeze, no door locks, and so on, failing to meet the minimum requirements set by organizations involved in water, sanitation and hygiene programs.

To help refugees live in dignity, JEN is rushing to carry out construction work to improve these household toilets.
