In thepoverty study carried out, the average of poorerhouseholds was slightly higher.It is interesting that in all projects the differencein access for the poor and rich was minimal,and that in each village generally there was away of dealing with the poorest householdsby letting them have water for free or for asmaller fee. With regard to contributions forconstruction, clearly everybody contributed, butoften each according to his or her means. Thisindicated that in Benin, villagers are well awarewhich families are poorest and reducing●contributions is an accepted compensatorycommunity practice for such families.In terms of contribution in cash for serviceestablishment, there was a certain measure ofequity, with women contributing marginally lessthan men and the poor contributing less thanthe wealthier households. Particularly, in themen’s group, poor men contributed on averagethree times less than men who were better off.However, continued payment after theestablishment of the service, in particular forthe payment of water, became a larger financialburden of women. This is illustrated in Figure17.108
FROM THEORY TO PRACTICEReality of enmeshed gender andpoverty issues●From the studies in Benin, it became clearthat most villages already deal effectively withsocio-economic variations betweenhouseholds by adjusting contributions todifferential payment capacities. In contrast,the gender gap remains large and is currentlythe most important problem. One urgent pointfor policy action that came out of the povertyprofile is that the poorest villages are alsothose that have the highest proportion offemale-headed households. In some villages,more that 75 percent of households arefemale-headed.Changing hygiene behavior takesmore than hygiene promotion●The sanitation and hygiene component didpoorly in these projects. Construction rate oflatrines was very low and little behaviorchange was observed. The strategy for thesanitation component was to train localmasons in the building and promotion oflow-cost sanitation technology, and to put theemphasis on hygiene and sanitationpromotion in order to foster demand ratherthan offering subsidies for household latrines,which has proved to be unsustainable. Eventhough the PADEAR GTZ/KFW did put moreof an accent on hygiene by having a specificgroup of people in each village beingresponsible for carrying out door-to-doorhygiene promotion, little change was seen.The hygiene promotion method was not well●developed and not targeted which led tocommunities getting bored with the samemessages being repeated by the field projectstaff.The sanitation component did poorly and thelatrine construction was clearly low in the 20villages. 35 This was mainly due to the lowpriority the sanitation component was givenfor the first year of the project. Also, moreefforts will have to be put into trainingmasons, in carrying out the marketing forlatrines, and allowing for households to payfor their latrines in installments. It may bepossible to experiment with training womenlatrine masons, which has been successful inraising demand in other countries.The PADEAR strategy succeeded tosome extent in promoting communityvoice and choice, communitymanagement capacity, and socialequity in project benefit-sharing●In general, the strategy was successful inproviding the communities with a voice, andto a lesser extent a choice, in the outcome oftheir WSS projects. It is also clear from theresults that certain areas of the strategy wereless sensitive to the demand-responsiveapproach than was expected. In many cases,project staff made the choice as to who wouldget trained in the water committee, and whenand how feedback to the community wouldbe given. Within communities, the village chiefand the male elite still dominate decisions onthe location of facilities.35 Only 2 percent of this population gained access to a latrine. Of these 2 percent (48 households), 92 percent(44 households) were from the better off class.109
