Interviewer instructions
Question 12: Does the household have a bathroom/latrine?

Considered as a bathroom or latrine is a space closed by walls that go from the floor to the roof, or by dividers (wall that elevate from the ground to the height of two meters), used by the household for the evacuation of excretion. The bathroom/latrine can be inside the dwelling or outside of the dwelling.


Question 14: Does the toilet have a button/chain/tank?

The button/chain/tank is the water flushing system for cleaning the toilet. This system can be one of two types: with an automatic deposit or with an automatic valve.

If flushing water is done manually with a bucket, bottle, hose or other manual method (independent of whether there is a toilet in the bathroom) you should mark no.
