The Indian Government will receive up to $1.5 billion from the world bank for support to rural sanitation in all states of the country. There is a $25 million TA (technical assistance) budget associated with this loan, managed by WSP. The majority of this TA budget is focused on MODWS at federal level, with some support to Bihar, UP and other lagging states.
The investment will enable the Association to respond to a growing political demand, cultivated jointly with the foundation by supporting a number of pilot projects in demonstration cities. It will support both PSTs in replicating their work in additional cities (UHRI and non-sewer approaches), increasing the people reached in response to growing urban demand. It will also help provide additional exemplars for other cities to […]
Mapping of 13 municipalities that have high water tables and regular flooding. Tender and selection of test model toilets; at the project start the variety of existing toilets on the market did not meet the specific needs of the flooded areas. A tender was released calling for interested parties. From this the Biofilcom toilet was selected and tested in 10 households over 9 months. Further households […]
This grant will fund the development, build and testing of a version of the Janicki OP in India. As part of this contract, technology and design information transfer will occur from Janicki to Ankur Scientific. This will result in a J-OP being manufactured in India and being deployed for testing at site TBD in Tamil Nadu.
Focusing in the geographic areas of Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, including Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Senegal, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Uganda, Zambia, Bangladesh, and Nepal, over the next two years CAWST will identify and strengthen the ability of capacity building organizations, such as training institutions and resource centres, to deliver high quality capacity building services in non-sewered sanitation. Existing and potential capacity […]
The sanitation approach implemented by Helvetas Haiti in Petit Goave and Forêt-des-Pins has resulted in the purchase and use of unsubsidized latrines. Helvetas Haiti would like to: capitalize on the experience, replicate the approach in other areas in Haiti, and share the approach both internally and externally, with the aim of ultimately improving people’s access to and use of sustainable sanitation. The study that Helvetas Haiti […]
This investment will cover 24 months of local project management for the Engineering Testing Platform of RT prototypes being deployed in Durban, SA.
The Sanitation and Hygiene Thematic Window, supported by the Water Supply and Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC), is aimed at promoting a culture of evaluation and improving the current evidence base in the sanitation and hygiene sector. Although there has been considerable investment in sanitation and hygiene related interventions over the past two decades, there is still a scarcity of high quality evidence in this area. […]

The Water and Wastewater Management Programme (WWMP) is implemented by GIZ on behalf of the German federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). The programme is supporting the Egyptian Holding Company for Water and Wastewater and its 25 Affiliated Companies in the sustainable improvement of their services. Current estimations state that only 50% of Egyptian households have access to sanitation services. The insufficient management […]
WWDSS allows for improving project selection and optimising portfolios through increased coherence between national policies, sectorial policies, resource allocation and spending practices, and improved knowledge management. Utilizing WWDSS to identify cost‐efficient interventions in the wastewater sector and utilize it as a platform for strategic advice and monitoring of the financial performance of the ACs is done as follows: 1. According to the community needs (centralized /Decentralized […]
Centralized solutions for wastewater treatment have not worked in Lebanon and the countries of the third world. These countries and especially Lebanon lack functional wastewater treatment plants. Sewage networks are poorly maintained and not all households are connected. In many rural areas, septic tanks are dug into the ground to collect sewage which seep into groundwater. The septic tanks are emptied by trucks where the […]
To implement our initiative we first conducted several training workshops for school students in a certain school, the training included topics on team building, conflict resolution and finally a special training lectures on the concept of water reuse and Grey water. After finishing training we located the site Grey water system will be built (beside water cycle) to transport water from sinks into a special […]
The project supports formal schools in the host community in Jordan which have high enrollment of Syrian refugees. The project has a 'hard' and a 'soft' component. The hard component entails expansion of schools with additional classroom buildings with integrated WASH blocks and playgrounds, as well as rehabilitation works. Where possible, the schools are outfitted with a solar panel system, covering the electricity needs of […]
