Armina Akhter, Community Leader stood by the Community, Bangladesh

Sreemangal Municipality has constructed a public toilet near the railway station. Unfortunately, despite its completion, the toilet remained unused for nearly two years due to some official issues. Armina Akhter, a 50-year-old Community Leader and member of the Community-led Monitoring team, along with her team, visited the facility to assess its status. After sharing their findings with the municipality authorities, the toilet was eventually opened to the public. Armina expresses her commitment to utilizing her training and expertise to advocate for the provision of safely managed sanitation services by the municipality.
She emphasizes the importance of ensuring equitable access to these services, particularly for marginalized communities.
