This paper which forms part of the IDS research project Going to Scale? The Potential of Community-led Total Sanitation examines the factors that have been instrumental in adoption and spread of CLTS in India. It mainly looks at two aspects, those factors internal to the CLTS process of training and triggering on the one hand, and those external to CLTS and located within the larger operating environment, on the other. The paper primarily draws on case studies from Haryana, Himachal Pradesh (HP), and Maharashtra.
