These
families would also be supported with bamboo and the
services of a carpenter. A second area of concern for us
is the access to clean and safe drinking water. The
intervention points for this are—Two Buckets with lids for
each family, a mug, alum and geoline for treating water
and marking cloth. This will cover 7000 families. A total
of 10000 families were to receive three soaps for washing,
bathing and laundry and ORS. Keeping in mind the specific
needs of hygiene for women, Oxfam has also planned for
distribution of 5000 sanitary na pkins. In order to meet
these plans, Unnayan, with the support of Oxfam has
trained a team of 70 volunteers for the identification of
the affected families and distribution of relief material.
To continue the Public Health and Hygiene promotion
campaign into the second month, a group of 28 volunteers
have been trained for repairing and disinfecting tube
wells. These volunteers will also be involved in
generating awareness among the communities. 6 volunteers
have been trained to test water using the Del Agua water
testing kit.
