Application Rating and Comment Explanation

The rating and comment reflect the reviewer's opinion of the project's potential for success, though we need to see the diversity of the reviewers and their rating style across projects.

The rating is a number from 1 (Poor) to 10 (Excellent).

Note that it is difficult to compare applications due to their diversity, and therefore the comment provides a very important context to the number. It reflects the reviewer’s thoughts and recommendations regarding this application; why they feel this project will or will not be successful.

- Self selecting criteria for the project i.e community demand base is appreciable.

- The technology used for the prevention of contamination of drinking water sources such as drinking water well and gravity flow spring captures is appreciable.

- The technology used for pumping of water through rope pump is low cost which is quite affordable for the local community.

- Besides this, afforestation improved smoke free stoves, construction of sanitation latrines and promotion of community health education are very important which improves the health and hygienic condition of the community. This may also reduce women drudgery.

Would like to see more on the sustainability of the sanitation intervention and perhaps a bit more on how hygiene behaviours will be changed, but a good project and I think we will learn a great deal from this.

Thanks
