Zambia, Katete District. Apr.- Jun. ‘12. 65, 865 pi. 48,417 pp. 104 pi. (pre-int.), 275 pi. (post-int.).
64 (pre-int., 19% response rate) and 89 respondents (post-int. 26% response rate)
CLTS: construction of pit latrines. BL: 14 pos. (13.5%) Post- int.: 45 (16.4%) pos. (p: 0.473). - Crop season: pi. are kept more in pens.

- Increase of latrines presence: pre (43, 67.2%) - and post-int. (74, 83.1%) (p = 0.027).
-Latrine usage: no increase: 41 (93.2%) at BL and 62(84.9%) post-int. giving a net increase of only 21 latrines (p = 0.15). This means that there has only been a 33.9% increase in toilet usage (p = 0.15).
- Home slaughter: common practice
