Eawag/Sandec is partnering with the Indian Institute of Technology (Chennai) and BORDA, Germany to carry out the first systematic assessment of small-scale sanitation systems in South Asia funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. The main goal of the project is to provide evidence-based policy recommendations for improved system design, operation and maintenance (O&M) and monitoring to inform strategic financial decision making and effective institutional arrangements and, thus, contribute to the increase of sanitation coverage in South Asia.
The project, based in Bangalore, focuses on India, especially the States of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, as well as Nepal, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
