- W4303648523 abstract "One of the biggest challenges in making the country Open Defecation Free is triggering behavioral changes in the population to accept the need for building and using toilets, in reality toilets mean health and economic benefits, and improvements to human dignity, but we need the perception of toilets to match this reality.
