EU-Projects: NETSSAF & ROSA M. Hänel, L. Barreto, M. Hammer, R. Otterpohl (2006)
The UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs, target 10) call for halving the proportion of people without access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation by 2015. The two newly started EU projects NETSSAF (Network for the development of Sustainable approaches for large Scale
implementation of Sanitation in Africa) and ROSA (Resource-Oriented Sanitation Concepts for Peri-Urban Areas in Africa) are both oriented towards their conversion within the African continent. Both are focusing on peri-urban or even rural areas and have the attempt to explore the
potential of sustainable sanitation solutions already there, to support such iniatives and start new ones, and finally disseminate the experiences made by networking. While NETSSAF is focusing on Western African countries, ROSA looks at Western Africa with Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda.
