Organochlorine organic pesticides used on a large scale still pose a great health hazard to humans and animals.
Organochlorine pesticides contribute to reduced disease, higher yields and increased production. This research was
to review various articles on management of organochlorine exposure and health risks. This research used multiple
search engines (Scholar, PubMed). A few significant keywords were chosen to discover considers that fit this theme.
Organochlorine as Persistent Organic Pollutants are difficult to remove from the environment. There are several
health-causing effects of organochlorine most of which are chronic diseases (i.e., pulmonary function, cancer, reproductive issue). Organochlorine control in the environment is needed to reduce health effects, especially in farming
communities, personal protective equipment including masks and gloves is also necessary. Local government may
also promote and doing a prevention program from the danger of the use of pesticides in agriculture.

In 2015, Indonesia was ranked as the second-highest, with a percentage of 12.9%. Open Defecation Free (ODF) in
Indonesia is still a problem, 33 out of 34 provinces in Indonesia are still not 100% verified as ODF. The purpose
of this study is to make a management control of OD behaviour in Indonesia. This study’s literature was collected
using Google Scholar and Pubmed search engines by entering keywords open defecation Indonesia, and buang air
besar sembarangan. From review of published literature, it is found that several factors cause people to practice OD,
namely environmental, socio-cultural, and economic factors. These factors become the basis for making OD model
control with a logic model. The program was made with a button-up approach carried out through several activities,
namely approaches to community leaders, youth, and local communities, monitoring potential areas for OD practice
and cross-sector coordination, and making regional regulations.
