If water pumps and latrines (at least some) are at schools, have you considered forming a water users committee based from the school teachers and parents committee, with subsequent outreach as required. In post flood rebuilding of schools in remote communities where there was a well and latrines built with the school we found the parents and teachers to be a pro-active and committed group with a common shared interest - through the children’s wellbeing. They were also sufficiently organised and committed to be able to raise small amounts of money for well pump spare parts and to arrange periodic maintenance. Kind regards - Chris N
