Sanitation aims to protect and promote public health by safely managing human excreta, providing a clean environment, and breaking the cycle of disease. On-site sanitation technologies (like pit latrines, septic tanks) are an essential component of sanitation, but sanitation is more than just building latrines. It is a system that addresses human excreta from the moment it is generated, through to its treatment and use. Faecal sludge management focuses on the last three components of a sanitation system: faecal sludge collection and transportation, treatment, and its ultimate use. This is often called the faecal sludge service chain. In this workshop, participants will learn about faecal sludge management for low-income communities not connected to a sewer. The workshop provides participants with an overview of technologies for faecal sludge collection, transportation, treatment, and use. It also introduces planning and management of faecal sludge management systems.
