Vanden identified timing the behaviour change perfectly as one of the most important lessons learned.''“When we started building the sanitary facilities we realised that the girls were very open and interested in the new technology. They were curious themselves and did not need motivation from external factors. We used this moment to educate them about sanitation, health and hygiene behaviour.”'' Parents, through the school, are also very aware of the project and its benefits and now wish to get ecological toilets as well. Two students, Prianga and Jayaputhradevi, campaigned for eco-toilets in Anaivari, their home village. Inspired by this story, two private donors from the United Kingdom have recently funded the construction of an eco-toilet block at Anaivari Primary School.
