Urban Environmental Sanitation in Nepal, an assessment of community/scale, decentralised wastewater management in Nepal, and the potential for a community/led urban environmental sanitation approach in Tansen Case studies from Sunga, Srikhandapur, Nala and Bhusal Danda Bright-Davies, L. (2013)
Nepal is experiencing the fastest rate of urbanisation in the South Asian region,with sanitation and wastewater management emerging as some of the biggest challenges in urban areas. A huge percentage of the population
still remain un-?served in terms of toilet coverage, and virtually all wastewater and septage is discharged into rivers and water bodies without any form of treatment.
As a result, urban environments are highly polluted, public health is jeopardized, and economic growth and development prospects are hindered.
