of the kings whose Blessing is uncountable, whose being is internal, whose mercy is
unlimited, whose provisions are un-ending. The proverb “knowledge is power” is one
true as it was in the session of field work. I gain much experience, which I could not
gain without this training. It is human nature that the learning process continued in his
life till death. So every step of his life he learn different experience.

In the same way I got many useful experience during my field some time these
experience are good or worse, but here we learnt, never lose hope and worked in
different conditions with different people in the society but what we learn is just
because of the fully cooperation of our respected teachers. My Internal supervisor
(Dr. Muhammad Jaffar) and External supervisor (Mam Sadia Yasmeen) they
showed the right path so I became able to fulfill my duties.

I am thankful to all who guide me kindly to fulfill the demand of field work. in

the last I am thankful to my fellows they were also very cooperative.

Introduction
I have replaced in Public Health Engineering Department Bahawalpur with my
group under the supervision of Miss Sadia Yasmeen as my external Supervisor and
Dr. Muhammad Jaffar as my Internal Supervisor. This report contain a bit reflection
of those activities with I performed in the field placement. It was a new experience for
me to work in Community Development Setting. Therefore possibility of mistake

implementation is being done in compliance with program guidelines.

Step 6: Outcome Evolution;

for future planning intervention

Principle of community development

Activity

Activity # 2

That day Mr. Mohsin gave us details about the PATS project which is ongoing project
of public health engineering department.

PATS Project

Pakistan approach for total sanitation

The Pakistan approach for total sanitation (PATS) is towards achieving and
sustaining and open defecation free environment both in rural and urban context
with clear emphasis toward behavior change and social mobilization enhancing the
demand side of sanitation The approach endorses the use of a number of branded
total sanitation model, having a key role of communities which include :

 Community led total sanitation .


 School led total sanitation.
 Component sharing.
 Sanitation marketing.
 Disaster response

These are the approaches used in PATS project mainly CITS is used now a day.

Community led total sanitation.

Community Led Total Sanitation (CLTS)

Community Led Total sanitation (CLTS) methodology is an entry point to


achieve “total sanitation” and not a total sanitation in itself. It is an effective approach
for triggering action to change defecation behaviors at the community level and to
create demand for improved sanitation facilities. CLTS encourages sanitation, as a
whole, to be taken as an entry point for greater social change and community
mobilization. The CLTS process seeks to provoke communities through their own
appraisal and analysis to decide to become open defecation free (ODF) and undertake
their own efforts to attain this status.

12
CLTS is an approach in which people in rural communities are facilitated to
do their own appraisal and analysis, come to their own conclusions, and take their
own action. They are not instructed or taught. With CLTS in its classical form, a small
team of facilitators conduct triggering. The facilitators may represent government,
NGO or project staff, or Natural Leaders from other communities. The PRA
(Participatory Rural Appraisal) principle that ‘they can do it’ is fundamental to this
approach. Various PRA methods are used including participatory mapping on the
ground to show where people live and where they defecate, transect walks to visit and
stand in those places, calculations of quantities of human faces (the crude local word
is used) produced by each household and the community, and identifying pathways to
the mouth leading to the shocking recognition that ‘we are eating one another’s shit’.
This triggering is designed to lead to a moment of ignition and a collective decision to
end Open Defecation (OD) followed by action to become Open Defecation Free
(ODF). When triggering is successful, Natural Leaders emerge. People dig pit holes
and build latrines. There are no standard models and construction is by self-help with
or without purchase of hardware from the market.

CLTS (community led total sanitation);

Founder of CLTS was Dr. Kamalkar who was a social activity in India. It was
started in Mardan in 2005 in union council Seri Behlol Anzerkili village.

 Tiring Session

First before starting the project we follow few steps.

1. Introduction and rapo building:

It is very necessary subject to do. Introduction with the community is


necessary for starting the repo building which is compulsory for community
participation.

2. Social Mapping:

In Social Mapping trigging Session are conducted. In which CBMs done


selection of CRP, Training of CRPs is included. Further they conduct a baseline
survey.

13
3. Transect Walk:

Transect walk is conducted by community.

4. Calculation of fesses is included.

If, one day defecation = 1kg

Then, one week defecation = 7kg

One month defecation=30kg

6 Family members = 600kg

300*600=1800

1800*12= 216000kg

= 216000/40=5400Mun

5400/100=54 Trillian

I human defecation have 100000 bacteria 10000 parasites, 1000 eggs

5. Flow diagram
6. Glass exercise
7. Medical expenditure

1000=medical expenditure one family

5000*12 = 700000Rs

300*60000=18000000Rs

8. Social Action Plan

These are the steps. And the figures which shows that how harmful is open
defecation in villages. More than earning they have expenditure on medicine and
health facilities.

Activity:

Activity # 3

We visited UC Tebi Izzat Moussa dhakwana tehsil Ahmedpur our team was
consist of four members two members was from office .

i.e Mr. Mohsin

Our purpose of visit was the selection of CRPs for conducting base line
survey.

First, of all we conducted pocket meeting with the key -person of UC .Then,
he make efforts to gather the few community members for selection of CRPs .we
selected them .Mr. Mohsin guide them how to conduct a base line survey.

Conclusion:

I concluded that awareness about the department of public health was enough. We
learn to deal with the community in UC = Tebi izzat

When we conduct some pocket and corner meeting with CRPs. It was learning
experience for us.

Social action plan is designed by few things. In which resources are required.
There are 4 types of Resources:

3. Material

Each activity is conducted on the basis of some objectives. Time and place of
activity is also part of social action plan.

16
SUPERVISION

I am very thankful to my internal and external supervise who guides me very kindly at
every Supervision means overseeing. The process of checking and overseeing by an
authority named as supervisor is called supervision. So we work under supervision or
our selected supervisor.

My Internal Supervisor

I am very thankful to my internal supervisor Dr. Muhammad Jaffar who guides me


very kindly at every step. I can consult with him at any time which is his kindness for
students. I learn much from him.

My External Supervisor

My external supervisor Mam Sadia Yasmeen who guides me in every step of field
work. I am very thankful to my external supervisor who gives me more information
and knowledge about community development, his kindness for student. I learn much
from him.

Self-Evolution

Self-evaluation is one of the most difficult parts of the fieldwork because one can’t
judge the one’s success or failure on his own. On the whole worker can feel changing
in his personality. I was placed in Community Development Bahawalpur for field
work training.

1. I tried my best to gain much experience during my field. It brings many


changes in my personality.
2. In this setting I talk much confidently how to talk with others in our life
professionally or personally.
3. The supervision of the department and the agency gave me much help and it
was only their guidance, which made me able to gain that confident.
