This way, the smoke is less of a hazard to residents. Furthermore, the Water Committee and I helped initiate the placement of water taps inside compounds rather than relying solely on communal pumps. There is less likelihood of cross-contamination, and people feel more responsible for keeping their water taps clean when they are located inside their compounds. Although my community and I have made meaningful strides in improving environmental sanitation, there is still a lot more work to be done, and progress often happens slowly. However, education, raising awareness and community initiatives are essential first steps toward fully meeting this need.
