Open defecation is not a good thing for water bodies - it is not good for public health. Sensitizing people towards good practices can help to control and reduce pollution of water bodies. In our case of the Senegalese's lake called "Lac de Guiers", we have to initiate a rural sanitation program :
- construction of latrines
- control of the use of pesticides
- creation of an office with a special mission for the lac de Guiers
I am sharing these two reports of lac de Guiers case (but they are in French).
