The Max foundation chose Bangladesh because there it can achieve most with the least

• High impact because of relatively high preventable child mortality

• Low cost because of soft ground and extreme poverty

• Many users per well because of high population density

• Robustness of result because of social stability

Why sanitation in Bangladesh?

People wash themselves in extremely dirty rivers …

…and live near shallow, polluted ponds from which they often drink

The digging of the wells is completely done by hand

The result is a clean water well without arsenic contamination

The improvement in water quality is enormous

15 randomly visited villages claimed:

“Since we have the wells and

latrines are children

have virtually no

more diarrea”

In some villages not a single child had died since the sanitation was provided

“no more scabies

since we wash

ourselves in clean water”

The possibility to ‘sponsor’ a well proved very popular

Page 13: 1 Max Foundation (Stichting Max). 2 Max Foundation prevents child mortality in Bangladesh in a transparent and efficient fashion Prevents child mortality

13

So far more than 500 villages received sanitation

Also air-sealed latrines are less glamorous but just as important

Because of the air-seal, flies can not

access the faeces and transfer diseases

The foot rests minimize the

amount of faeces carried back into the households

Handwash water: the first sept to

hygiene

Besides the hardware (wells and latrines), the software is crucial

So far the foundation made progress but the need still is huge

• The foundation proved the micro-sanitation approach…– Simple – Scalable – Robust

• …And showed results– 500 deep tube wells– 100.000 people provided with sanitation

• But the number of people without access to clean water still is huge– 40+ million in Bangladesh alone– 200+ million in India– 1+ Billion in the world
