ThenI hear Mrs. Surya’s voice as she screamed with joy overthe phone when she successfully encourages the peoplein Maranti Village in Central Sulawesi mountainousslope to Stop Open Defecation. I can hardly forget howMr. Abie brilliantly found and sold his amazing bio filteridea for the communal septic in the middle of crampedhousing and small alleys of Penjaringan, andMr. Sugeng’s tenacity in working with various recyclableinside the tight cubic of the Waste Bank in SemperBarat.

ForewordWe should all thank God for giving us the opportunities andstrength to everybody involved in the publication of the book“Gathering the Nation’s Jewels, the Sanitation Fighters from AllOver the Nation.“Not only are we grateful for finishing the writing and the publication process, but also grateful for a consistent assistance processtowards the community, so that people’s awareness are growingand developing in taking over the role and became the initiatorof change for a healthy and comfortable environment in theirneighborhood.A community development transformation process that leadtowards a clean and healthy life through the Community BasedTotal Sanitation program had brought a significant behaviorchange in several WVI assisted area, starting from Nias to Papua.This can be seen through all 16 stories compiled in the CBTS(STBM) Inspiring Stories. We hope that these stories can bea valuable reference to the other areas moving towardsthe community awareness and behavioral change for a clean andhealthy life.Community Based Total Sanitation(CBTS) is one of theapproaches applied in the health program in various WVI serviceareas. Community empowerment and awareness in order to gethealth infrastructure became the spirit that lives on in thisprogram implementation. Limited access and the high price ofmaterials did not limit the community’s spirit to own adequatehealth facility.vii

A healthy community’s behavior can give hope to the improvement on children’s health quality. Wahana Visi Indonesiacontinues to socialize the CBTS program as a behavior changethat was adapted to more Indonesia’s community. The supportand partnership with various parties became one of the pillars ofsuccess for the program. Wahana Visi Indonesia is very happy tobe one of the stakeholders that always initiate this CBTSprogram in the assisted areas.Finally, we want to express our gratitude for the contribution ofall CBTS actors in the community, from the children, housewives, community members, Village Head, and local government,who became the main inspiration for this book. Also for thefellow writers who are able to share the success stories so thatit could be the reference and triggers for those fighting to builda clean and healthy environment.

ForewordDirectorate General of Public HealthMinistry of Health of Indonesia RepublicAssalamu'alaikum Warrahmatullahi Wabarrakatuh,May Peace and Prosperity be Upon Us All,Community Based Total Sanitation (CBTS) is an approachand paradigm in the sanitation development in Indonesia, whichfocus on community empowerment to improve the hygiene andsanitary behavior changes through motivation. CBTS is quiteeffective in the efforts of speeding up access to proper sanitation. The community became the subject of CBTS approachbecause they are motivated to have the will, to be empoweredand to act on clean and healthy living practices. The CBTS beginwith the community’s understanding in the issues that they arefacing, with their initiatives and decision to change, and withtheir action in doing the program together using the resourcesthat they have.ix

In every efforts made to reach the goal, there will bechallenges that need to be faced in order to gain success. Someof the sanitation fighters documented in the book “Gatheringthe Nation’s Jewels, the Sanitation Fighters from All Over theNation“ are the perfect examples of champions that managed toface the challenges in their effort to change the people’sbehavior. These champions rise from the challenges andproblems, because they can change those challenges intoopportunities for a healthier life. And finally, they managed tobring changes in the community, both within the families and intheir social lives.Clean and Healthy Living Behavior (PHBS) must besocialized so that it became the foundation of health culture inIndonesia and must be instilled from an early age so it can rootout as one of Indonesia’s culture.I give my biggest thanks and appreciation to Wahana VisiIndonesia for writing and publishing this book. Hopefully thisbook can be a source of inspiration for many new sanitationfighters in Indonesia, more will be inspired and will fighttogether in making Universal Sanitation Access 2019 a realization.Wassalamu'alaikum Warrahmatullah Wabarrakatuh.Jakarta, March 2016Directorate General of Public Healthdr.

My Dog, My Toilet1

Agatha is a kid, living in a shoestring condition withher family. Her parents work as rubber farmer.However, this never diminishes Agatha’s happinesswhen she’s playing. Everyday, Agatha plays with her friends, runsaround in her yards and plays with Beki, her dog. There’s nosadness in her faceBesides playing, Agatha also really likes participating in children’sgroup activities every week in the village, in Sekadau District,West Kalimantan. The St. Lusia children’s group has been aroundfor one year and the children are still very enthusiastic in itsactivities. In the beginning, the children are taught by theCatholics Women, as the children group facilitator, on how topray according to their belief, which is Catholic. After finishingthe prayer, then the Sekadau Operational Office of Wahana VisiIndonesia (WVI) came to start the activities, such as givinglessons on child’s right, the importance of being healthy, and theimportance of having toilets in each house.Every week, WVI’s staff will remind them on the importance ofhaving toilet, and they never forgot to ask who amongst thechildren have toilet and who haven’t. Those who have it willproudly raises their hand. This is very different compared to thechildren who does not have toilet. In every activity, the WVI’sfacilitators will remind those who does not have toilet to asktheir parents to build them a toilet.Agatha is always included in the group that do not have a toilet.Every time she comes home from the children’s group, Agathaalways remembers the facilitator’s message to build the toilet athome.2

Besides the children, WVI also raises awareness amongst theparents on the importance of having a family toilet. Every time,WVI’s facilitators remind Agatha on the importance of toilet,then she will also ask her parents to build the toilet. Because shekeeps on asking for toilet, finally her mother asks the husband tobuild the toilet in their house.One night, Agatha’s dad came and told her, “Agatha, I don’t haveany money to build the toilet. Building toilet requires money,and I don’t have any, so if you want the toilet, we need to sellour dog,” he said. Hearing this, Agatha cries because Beki, a dogthat she really cared of, must be sold.Agatha thinks hard, which is more important, “My dog or mytoilet?” It took her a week before she finally ready to sell herfavorite dog in order to build the toilet.The next day, her dad sold Beki for IDR 500.000. Afterwards, herdad builds a toilet for his daughter. Both her mother and dadwork together side by side tobuild this toilet. With greatspirits they poured theirsweat and tears to buildthe toilet for their beloveddaughter.Once the toilet isfinished, Agatha is veryhappy, she is no longersad. Agatha can nowproudly told her friendsthat she owns a toilet.*3

Surya,The Light ofMaranti Village“I have never expected that the communityin Maranti Village can achieve 100%Open Defecation Free. It feels like a dream.”Her eyes were wondering while she tried to remember how shestarted the village triggering with his partner Mr. Daeng.Her hands were wiping the tears of joy running through hercheeks. Her voices are caught upon trying to hold her tears.7

“I am proud, really proud. Atfirst, I am not sure thatwe can reach 100% of thecommunity uses toilet todefecate, but after the verification and having the ViceRegent of Parigi MoutongDistrict to attend thedeclaration in our smallvillage I am so proud.” Hestop to holds back the tears.Then his eyes look brighterand she starts to smile.This is Mrs. Suryaningsih, whois also known as Mrs. SuryaPoopy amongst the people ofMaranti Village because shealways asks the people abouttoilets, their defecation habits,and checks the existence offeces around the houses ofMaranti Village surroundings.The Maranti Village is a villagelocated in the foot of themountain, in Mepanga SubDistrict, Parigi MoutongDistrict. “Our village isa secluded village, it is downin the end, the road is bumpy,rocky and broken. It is farfrom the city, down by thefoot of the mountain. We area very simple community. Weused to do open defecation inirrigation canal, the gardenand in the bushes . This ishow it has been since always.”Mrs. Surya describes Marantivillage and the habit of thepeople living there.On May 21st 2015, MarantiVillage in Mepanga SubDistrict conducts adeclaration of OpenDefecation Free. The firsttriggering was held in July2014 after Mrs. Surya and Mr.Daeng was chosen by theVillage Head to be trained asa CBTS facilitator by WahanaVisi Indonesia. When thetriggering was done, therewere only 16 families (8%) inall 4 sub-villages of MarantiVillage that own a toilet anddefecate there. At first thetriggering were only done insub-Village 1 and sub-village 2,however the communityagreed that it needs to bedone in all sub-villages, andthis encourage the VillageHead to release a villageregulation on OpenDefecation Free and sanctionfor those who does it. InApril 2015, or 8 months later,when the verification teamcame, a total of 192 families(100%) have used toilet todefecate. This is because ofthe persistent efforts of Mrs.Surya and Mr. Daeng and thelocal authorities.8

“I always try to do monitoring. For instance, in the morning when I leave to school toteach in early childhood education (PAUD), I try to leaveearlier so I can drop by inseveral houses from my subvillage to the other sub villagewhere I teach, just to askwhether they have built thetoilet and where did theydefecate that day ” Mrs.Surya smiles and told us thatusually she would go straightto the back of the house tosee whether they have builtthe toilet or not. “I don’t careif they are bored of myquestions and my visits.” shestated while smiling. “This isfor our health, for the healthof all community. Healthy lifestarts the day when we stopdoing open defecation,” sheadded. “After they build thetoilet, in the end, they willfinally admit that they are theones who are happy, and notme.”She explains that there areseveral people who cameto her place after theyfinished building the toiletin their house, saying howcomfortable it is to have theirown toilet. A neighborin her village also says that9whenever she has stomachache she doesn’t need toworry because now she doesn’t need to go all the way tothe river.“Am I happy? No, I am notthe one who is happy. It isthose who build the toiletthat is happy. Because nowthey don’t have to go to theriver, or bring hoe and havingto dig around wheneverthey need to defecate, and theynever have toworry abouthaving to taketheirchildren to theriver whenthey want todefecate.Under-fiveyearsoldchildren can nowdo it themselves intheir home toilet, andthey don’t need to betaken all the way to the riverand parents should not beworried about leaving theirchildren alone because nowthey can supervise them athome,” she said withexcitement while touchingher stomach. Mrs. Surya isexpecting her third child, andshe’s in the 8 months period.

Not only that she’s activeas a teacher in early childhoodeducation (PAUD),Mrs. Surya is also really activein the community and is veryconcerned about the healthissue in the environment andchildren. She assists thechildren’s study group withWahana Visi Indonesia, wherechildren can develop theirskills in dancing, theatreand other arts.“Children must bedeveloped anda c t i v e Ialwaysencouragethem to beactive,tospeak up andperform.T h e s echildren will bethe future leaderof our country, sothey must learn howto be brave and confidentfrom an early age.”forced the people in the community to build the toilet.Mrs. Surya once felt reallydown when there are twohouseholds in the village thatrefused to build toilet.“Me and Mr. Daeng wereconfused. The Village Headalso gave up because they donot want to build the toilet.Finally, I shared the story toMrs. Lily, WVI staff, to ask forhelp. Mrs. Lily contacted theCommunity Health Centerand Mr. Ngakan, Head of thePeople’s Welfare Affai
