In 2003, GKW Consult adopted
the PHAST approach for its Bolpur-Raghunathpur Water Supply, Sanitation
and Health Education Project in West Bengal.
This was done with the objective
of strengthening its hygiene and sanitation promotional activities and
to facilitate communities to move from problem identification and analysis
to problem solving actions. All the NGO teams were trained and learnt
the appropriate use of PHAST materials.

Thoughtshop Foundation developed the set of cards after examining
the PHAST method, observing the scenario in which it is used, and
understanding the requirements of the health workers and the Partner.
Pictures had to capture the characteristic features and details of
the project areas; habitation and environment, customs, dresses, utensils.
Such details are important to help participants identify themselves
in the situations visualised.
