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.

Very good project. It is advisable to set up a tracking program that may be just an annual inspection by the implementor because sometimes a minor mismanagement in the community or a minor repair of the system may lead to close down of the system. A stitch in time saves nine. Pictures of the project area strengthens the proposal that are missing in the current proposal.

This looks like a sound project. The only thing I would suggest is to attempt a working partnership with the local government.

Good project and well setup for success.

The discussion on the other projects in Vietnam and Nicaragua should help in figuring out how to introduce composting (ecosan) toilets.

- The project is unique as it is linked with the existing government programmes and addresses to the felt need as well as the root causes of the health and hygiene issues by building local institutions.
- The project is based on the most important core values such as social, equity, gender equity, cost sharing building of local institutions, transformation in people’s behavioral change and sustainability.
- It is highly appreciated that a special inbuilt provision has been developed for the recurring expenses and maintenance through identifying common resources with a view to generate income to meet the O&M costs.
