Improved latrines (Mozambique)

In 2015 less than 68% of the world’s population had access to improved sanitation, below the 75% objective of the WDO.

Children playing in front of some “improved” latrines, financed by the Red Cross, which avoid contact with your own excreta, thus reducing the transmission of infectious diseases such as polio, while offering total privacy. Only 21% of the population of Mozambique have such latrines.
