comprised of wards, neighbourhoods and communities, makes both horizontal and
vertical peer-learning at and between levels possible. Horizontal learning platforms
allow learning between male and female neighbourhood members and groups at poor
neighbourhood level, between departments in pokjas at city level, and between cities
through mayors, pokjas and NGOs.
Vertical learning involves learning between neighbourhoods with innovative practices
and local departments, the Pokja, local NGOs and local universities and other
research organizations. The formulated action research are the prime mechanism of
further learning on and development of innovative approaches within and between the
cities. Given the limited involvement and strength of the national sanitation
