A staggering 355 million women and girls are still waiting for a toilet in India (WaterAid, 2017). Women from low-income communities face the brunt of this gap as they compromise their safety each day to carry out their daily sanitation routine.
MHT is always on the lookout for committed and creative individuals to join our team of grassroots and issue experts. The work is difficult. Our offices are modest and resources are always tight. However, the experience is immersive and rewarding, and your skills, creativity, and ingenuity can help make a difference in the lives of vulnerable families.
