Women Centric Squatter: to provide accessible sanitation

Open defecation and bathing in a squatter is a neutral issue, however women face larger dangers while accessing them in squatter conditions which have no electricity and moral regulation. Location, accessibility and the challenge to maintain sanitation facility at a cluster level for women are the key points the mobile sanitation module tries to address. It is proposed that the potential of the unit to adapt itself into a space that promotes secondary source of income and into a space that nurtures their children will promote the users to maintain the sanitation module themselves. The exclusivity/ segregation of the module for female users is dependent on stakeholder’s finances however, the design decisions are taken keeping the spatial patterns of women in forefront.
