Manavta

Manavta 4 billion people on our planet are subjected to unsafe sanitation. Our top priority is to minimize that number.

We are working on creating a world where clean water, hygiene and decent toilets is normal for everyone. Our project began in Nepal, where two-thirds of the population still relies on open defecation and many communities have no sanitation infrastructure. We partner with the communities, local NGOs and public officials to build EcoSan toilets at rural schools. We build our toilets at schools, beca

use children are the most affected by the lack of sanitation facilities. UNICEF estimates that 443 million school days are lost to sanitation-related diseases every year. However, our work doesn’t end when the toilets are finished. Without classroom teaching of good sanitation practices, the toilets are entirely useless. Education is integral to the success of this project.

We’ve seen many toilets over the years… and yeah, it’s always a mix.

Some are solid, clean, and actually being used. Others? Broken, locked, or just not part of daily school life anymore. Different sizes, different builds—but the same reality: just building a toilet doesn’t mean it’ll make a difference.

That’s why our focus is on sustainability. Not just construction, but making sure toilets are used properly, maintained, and understood. It’s about long-term impact—designing for the community, building ownership, and making hygiene part of everyday life.

Because if it’s not used, it doesn’t work. 🚽💧

Spend the day with our team in Rasa village diving into field research for our newest project 🌿

What an experience. The journey itself was an adventure, navigating remote landscapes, connecting with the community, and gaining real insight into the challenges people face every day.

These are the moments that remind us why this work matters. Being on the ground, listening, learning, and building alongside the community is where real impact begins.

More to come as this project takes shape. 🚀

Globally, 2 in 5 schools lack basic sanitation and clean water access, increasing students risk of illness and missed learning time.

We’re heading back to Jumla to focus on hygiene education and hands-on activities that keep kids healthy, in school, and thriving. 🌱

🚽 It's not just toilets, it’s dignity, health & education

At Namuna School in Jumla, building a proper toilet was only step one. What really changed lives was the hygiene and sanitation education that came with it.

Clean facilities + knowledge = kids (especially girls) staying healthy, confident, and in class — not missing school because of periods, illness or lack of privacy. 

Because our work isn’t just about building a place to do your business, it’s about giving every child the chance to learn, grow, and thrive!

Every splash tells a story. 💧✨

At Kalika School, children once faced a daily struggle: no clean water, limited sanitation, and classrooms interrupted by preventable illness. This reality is changing.

Now kids can wash their hands and use upgraded facilities, small actions that protect health, keep them in school, and give them a chance to thrive.

We’re returning to complete a community education program and expand infrastructure, making clean water and safe sanitation a lasting reality.

Help us ensure every child deserves a safe, healthy place to learn at 🌱

On this International Women’s Day, we celebrate strength, but we must speak truth.

Our work has gender written all over it.

When sanitation systems fail, it is women and girls who suffer most.
They are the ones who wake before dawn or wait until dark to protect their dignity.
They are the ones who miss school during menstruation.
They are the ones who carry the physical, emotional, and social burden of unsafe water and toilets.

BUT Women are not just the most affected, they are the leaders of change.

They are the primary educators in our programs.
They are the mothers who model hygiene, resilience, and responsibility.
They are the farmers who put innovation into practice.
They are our volunteer health professionals teaching menstrual hygiene with courage.
They are the ones who make the home.

When women lead, sanitation becomes more than infrastructure.
It becomes dignity.
It becomes health.
It becomes empowerment.

Today, we honor the women who teach, who build, who advocate, who nurture, and who refuse to accept inequity as normal.

We’re heading back to Jumla this month to continue our work at Kalika School. 💙
