Abstract:
Sanitation is an important aspect of human life which generally refers to hygienic behavior and practices related to our day to day activities such as maintain cleanliness, washing hands, and proper defecation and maintain scientific distance from pollutants. Safe sanitation and hygiene are needed to realize the Millennium Development Goals targeting gains against diarrheal diseases, improving maternal health, and reducing child mortality. As a result, women become an important target for improving sanitation and hygiene because of their roles as household managers, in child rearing and environmental care. The United Nation declared 2008 as the international year of sanitation in view of the 2.6 billion people in the World who lack even basic ssanitation facilities and the poisonous consequences this has for their health and human dignity. The main aim of this paper is to highlight the problems and issues of sanitation and personal hygiene faced by the slum women and to assess the relative benefits of sanitation programs (Swachh Bharat Abhiyan) among these women. This study is descriptive in nature and is based on inductive logic of inquiry and case study method. The data has also been supported by secondary sources.
