The results showed that there was a relationship between the level of knowledge (0.021), attitude (0.000), water availability (0.001) and the use of latrines. On the other hand, there was no relationship between gender (0.796), an education level (0.259) and latrines in Mundek Village, Northwest Rote district, Rote Ndao Regency.
