Online Guardian documentary: Quipu Project – social justice phone line in Peru (2017)

May 2, 2017

The Quipu Project is an interactive documentary about women and men who were sterilised in Peru in the mid-1990s.  Many did not give full consent for it to happen.Since 2000, organised groups of sterilised women and men have campaigned for the sterilisations to be acknowledged and compensated.  The campaigners are hindered by several crucial factors.  The majority of them live in remote regions with no internet access, many have not completed primary schooling and only speak the local language, Quechua, rather than the Spanish spoken by most legislators. Twenty years later, they are still seeking justice.Through an interplay between a low-tech telephone line and a high-tech digital interface, the Quipu Project enables communities that are politically, geographically and digitally marginalised to tell their stories around the world using the internet. Contributors can also use the phone line to listen and respond to each other, providing an infrastructure of support that can operate across a dispersed community.  Furthermore, by archiving the collaborators’ testimonies publicly online, it ensures that their oral accounts are not lost.Click here for full details.

Handwashing with Soap Toolkit (WSP 2014)

October 16, 2016

Improving handwashing with soap practices can save children’s lives by reducing preventable diseases like diarrhea and acute respiratory infections. Despite its effectiveness in reducing disease, handwashing with soap is uncommon in many countries. The Water and Sanitation Program (WSP) conducted research with local partners in Peru, Senegal, Tanzania, and Vietnam to understand the factors that affect an individual’s decision to practice handwashing with soap.  The research informed the implementation of handwashing project activities in the four countries. Following national and local government implementation, WSP and its partners gathered valuable lessons, which inform this handwashing with soap toolkit. The toolkit, intended for practitioners interested in behavior change, is organized into four modules, each with reports and presentations about the lessons learned from the projects, as well as mass media, direct consumer contact, and interpersonal communication tools used throughout the project.
