Visakhapatnam's successes As India is scaling up efforts to improve urban sanitation across the country between now and 2019 as parts of its ambitious Swachh Bharat ("Clean India") campaign, the city of Visakhapatnam is getting out ahead of the curve by having women help lead the charge to make sustainable sanitation improvements. For the latest on Visakhapatnam's successes, have a look at the recent feature in USAID's Global Waters magazine, "USAID Joins 100,000 Women in India to Bring Dignity, Safety, and Health to a City of Two Million." What can other cities across India learn from Visakhapatnam's experiences? How does mainstreaming gender into sanitation improvement efforts enhance the sustainability of public health campaigns like Swachh Bharat?
