Qatar Charity (QC) has transformed the Pakistani village of “Kili Ataallah” from a marginalised one that lacked the minimum standards of cleanliness into a village that adheres to environmental standards.
It has received a certificate from Pakistani government agencies in Balochistan province in recognition of its application of safety standards.
The toilets project implemented by Qatar Charity in partnership with Unicef is considered one of the most prominent pioneering projects in this field.
The project, which was implemented in just six months and at a cost of QR897,982 was a turning point in the lives of the residents of the village and became a model to be emulated.
This success is considered the culmination of the efforts made by Qatar Charity in water and sanitation in Pakistan.
Since 2021, Qatar Charity built 19,658 toilets throughout the country in government institutions, health facilities, mosques, and remote villages.
Qatar Charity succeeded in constructing about 1,000 toilets in these facilities, with a special focus on women and people with special needs.
During this period, Qatar Charity organised awareness sessions on the importance of personal hygiene and sanitation for approximately 236,000 people.
This achievement coincides with World Toilet Day, which falls on November 19 every year, and whose slogan this year focuses on “accelerating change” to realise every person’s human right to safe sanitation.
The project was implemented at a cost of QR897,982.
