Abstract:
The primary aim of this systematic review was to identify and synthesize evidence of the impact of separate toilets for girls on their enrolment and attendance in schools. The authors did not identify any studies that were designed to assess the impact of separate-sex toilets. And while they identified some evaluations of school-based WASH programmes that included separate toilets for girls, the impact of separate toilets on girls’ educational outcomes could not be assessed for the following reasons:
- All schools in the study had separate-sex toilets, thus precluding a comparison with other arrangements, such as shared toilets or no toilets.
- All schools in the study had shared toilets.
- The educational outcomes were not disaggregated by sex.
- As part of a broader, complex WASH intervention, the relative effects of single components, such as the separate-sex toilets, could not be distinguished.
