Thank you for posting to the tagging list, I have now joined that list too To clarify Open Defecation Areas ODA are usually piles of rubbish in unused spaces, they can be very large like a rubbish pit or small like an abandoned doorway. They regularly get cleared but start up again. Women are particularly vulnerable and sometimes use plastic bags to go in then throw the bags in an ODA. ODAs are an indication that a proper dry toilet is needed.
A map would allow local communities to understand the problem in their area. The inspiration from the 1854 broad street pump https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/1854_Broad_Street_cholera_outbreak Is one of mappings greatest successes. WatSan probably stands for Water/Sanitation I also stated 850 million practice Open Defication in 10 different locations, but that was my guesstimate. I hope we can do this I think it will have a strong impact. Read details of ODA from unicef https://www.unicef.org/wash/files/UNICEF_Game_plan_to_end_open_defecation_2018.pdf Thanks Bob
