The development carried out in Papua covers all aspects of community life. Starting from the construction of public facilities in various fields, including economics, education and health. These facilities are something that the Papuan people really need. Accelerating development is also being implemented intensively by all responsible parties. Starting from the central government, regional governments, and also governments at the village level are also taking a role in development in Papua. The needs of the community must be met immediately so that Papua can move in a better direction in the future with various qualified facilities that are able to provide the best service to the existing resources in Papua.

Apart from public facilities, private facilities are also considered. One of the private facilities included in the development projects implemented in Papua is sanitation. Community Based Total Sanitation Program built in Papua. The aim is of course so that people care more about sanitation and cleanliness which ultimately refers to health. Especially after the COVID-19 pandemic which hit the whole world, including Papua, sanitation has become one of the leading programs that must be immediately implemented in society. Sanitation is not just about disposing of household waste and managing feces, but also how the parties responsible for developing Papua can ensure the availability of clean water suitable for consumption by the community in their daily activities.

The implementation of the Community-Based Total Sanitation program is very dependent on the supply of clean water. Papua Province has an opportunity regarding the amount of clean water which only needs to be improved regarding its distribution to communities in remote areas. Clean water is often used for public consumption for drinking, eating, cooking, and also for bathing and so on. In fact, the Papua Provincial government plans to ensure the availability of clean water suitable for consumption as drinking water that can make the community healthy.

Basic sanitation that is met can continue to be directed towards Community Based Total Sanitation. The construction of bathrooms, toilets, as well as places for washing clothes and other things, is being taken seriously by development managers in Papua. The Papua Regional Faecal Sludge Management Installation is also being created to facilitate community sanitation. As explained earlier, water distribution or drainage facilities are the main steps that need to be considered and also the main facilities that need to be built to realize the Community Based Total Sanitation program.

The seriousness of the parties responsible for developing Papua begins with improving facilities including sanitation which leads to health. When all health support facilities including sanitation are met, the existing resources in Papua will be used more wisely. The natural resources in the form of water owned by the Papuan people can be felt to be beneficial for various things. Apart from that, human resources whose health is guaranteed is also an indicator of the success of development in Papua.
