Standard, key indicator, or guidance note?

Below you will see a group of statements all relating to the same standard. Think about each statement, and decide whether it’s the standard text, or an indicator or guidance note that relates to it.

standards are the minimum level (of service) to be attained in humanitarian assistance
key indicators are used to test whether a standard has been achieved
guidance notes are used to share best practice and experience, talk about controversial areas, and help you to use the indicators effectively in your own context

The participation of all vulnerable groups is actively encouraged in the siting and construction of bathing facilities and/or the production and distribution of soap, and/or the use and promotion of suitable alternatives.

People may need a space where they can bathe in privacy and dignity. If this is not possible at the household level, central facilities may be needed. Where soap is not available or commonly used, alternatives can be provided such as ash, clean sand, soda or various plants suitable for washing and/or scrubbing. Washing clothes is an essential hygiene activity, particularly for children, and cooking and eating utensils also need washing. The numbers, location, design, safety, appropriateness and convenience of facilities should be decided in consultation with the users, particularly women, adolescent girls and any disabled people. The location of facilities in central, accessible and well-lit areas can contribute to ensuring the safety of users.
