Audio description transcript: The video opens with a green circular logo with ‘the Sanitation Learning Hub’ written inside the circle. The circle unfurls and draws into the shape of a woman walking along, carrying a backpack. The woman is dressed casually. This woman is a sanitation and hygiene practitioner. The practitioner meets another woman holding an infant, with a young boy next to her. They are standing on the edge of a village. There are two chickens pecking around them. The village has about 14 single-storey houses, with a toilet in the foreground. Text reads ‘Everyone has the right to safely managed sanitation and hygiene.’ The video zooms in on the practitioner looking at the sewage pit, run-down toilet with corrugated iron roof and foot-operated ‘tippy tap’ handwashing station. The sewage pit has planks missing from the lid and there are flies buzzing around. Text reads ‘…but every context has complex challenges to overcome’. The door of the toilet opens and a small boy runs out. The toilet door remains open showing a basic squat toilet in the floor with no cover. The small boy looks at the handwashing station but doesn’t use it, and runs off into the distance. The video zooms back out to the practitioner, holding a notepad, talking to a man and a woman who look concerned. A speech bubble appears from the woman, showing a small boy holding his stomach as if in pain. A speech bubble appears from the man, showing a woman who is using her arms to move herself across the floor from her wheelchair towards the toilet. The scene fades out to change into the circular SLH logo with text showing ‘the Sanitation Learning Hub provides’. The logo fades into an image of a woman handing a SLH publication to the practitioner. A speech bubble is coming from the practitioner showing hands being washed. Text next to them reads ‘Practical support’. The two women smile when the publication changes hands. The scene fades out into a group of people writing and drawing together on a piece of paper on the ground. Within the group, there is a man in a wheelchair, two women holding children, a young woman and some elderly people. One of the women with children is pointing to the paper which shows drawings of squat toilet slabs. The practitioner sits on the edge of the group and watches. Text reads ‘Current thinking’. The scene fades into the practitioner sitting in a chair showing two men in chairs a video on a screen on a table. She is holding her hand out pointing to the screen and holding a piece of paper. On the screen, there is an image of someone with a video camera, and another person building a toilet. Text reads ‘Spaces to connect, share and learn’. The scene fades out into a circle, which unfurls to become a line drawing of the practitioner. The practitioner is walking into the village she previously visited. The village has changed. There is a new chicken coop on the edge of the village, with three chickens pecking outside. Three boys play football together. Someone is sweeping outside a new toilet building that is built from bricks and has a solid roof. The video zooms in on the practitioner looking at the toilet building. There are two doors to separate toilets. The left door is open, and you can see a raised toilet with assistive bars that people can use to steady themselves. The door on the right opens and a small boy runs out. You can see a ceramic squat toilet. The boy goes to the sink on the outside of the building and uses the tap to wash his hands. The video zooms out to show the people from the village met previously standing together, looking happy and waving to the practitioner, who waves back. The scene fades into a screen that has the Sanitation Learning Hub logo, and text that reads ‘Timely, relevant and actionable learning and research to achieve safely managed sanitation and hygiene for all. sanitationlearninghub.org’
