A1: ODF stands for "Open Defecation Free." It is a term used to declare an area, community, or city where there is no visible feces found in the open, and all community members use toilets or other sanitation facilities for the safe disposal of human waste.
A2: Achieving ODF status is a crucial milestone in sanitation and public health. It indicates the successful elimination of open defecation, promoting community health, reducing water contamination, and improving overall hygiene.
A3: ODF+ is an enhanced version of Open Defecation Free. While ODF focuses on the absence of open defecation, ODF+ emphasizes the sustainability and maintenance of the ODF status. ODF+ communities not only eliminate open defecation but also maintain hygienic practices, proper waste management, and continuous access to sanitation facilities.
