A three year old boy, naked from the navel down, squats and defecates outside the ramshackle crèche at Jadu Place, a shack settlement housing more than 3 000 people near the suburb of Puntans Hill in eThekwini (Durban).

His is a tiny contribution to the malodorous thickness where the pit latrines are found and around which snotty-nosed kids run. The municipality has provided the community with two flush toilets for women, and one for men, but they are down a steep slope at the very bottom of the settlement. Not easily found in the dark or if you are old. This is, undoubtedly, a shitty existence.
