Overall Economics.
If one water Filter and a healthy Toilet is provided to each house it can be considered as Health facility cum Organic Manure Manufacturing business. The overall gains will be, Saving on medical cost. Increase in agricultural production. Sale of earth worms. Overall cleanliness in a village and well being experienced by the villagers. Encouragement to Organic Manure and Organic Farming. All this will have to be done by involving SELF HELP GROUPS and mainly the women who can be a driving force behind this Co-Operative Health, Sanitation and Organic Farming Movement. The overall Management will be done by Women Group only and what we wish to show in this Model Demonstration Project is Health and Sanitation Facility can become an Agri Resource Generating Activity and should be developed as Micro Business, with all activity will be overseen and managed by the Women Entrepreneur Group.
