A job opportunities section of the SuSanA website would be a great resource! I often get emails of job postings and of professionals looking for work in sustainable sanitation, and having a central website to connect these would be excellent.

Dear Sir,

I am pleased to certify that the SuSanA is resourcefull and effective. We are sincerely appreciated to allowed to being a member of SuSanA family.

We are interesting to collaborate with all of you. Hope you will interest to being partner with RLT.

With thank,
Mong

SuSanA is really a helpfull alliance with a great mission and since joining it I have got more experience & motivation, I used the guides and manuals uploaded on this site in my feild work.

Congratulations Peter. What I liked most is you just got on and did it!

I am also very, very happy that Peter won the award, well done Peter!

And I am particularly thrilled because it was actually SuSanA who nominated Peter. I have the feeling that the nomination had more weight this way than if it had come just from GTZ or just from SEI etc. After all, that's what we are trying to achieve with SuSanA: As 100+ organisations together we have a stronger voice than as just lots of scattered organisations on their own.

Lets look out for further awards where we could suggest SuSanA members in the future in order to bring our topics and issues to the lime light even more.

By the way, does anyone have photos from the award ceremony (I already left back to German on the day before)?

And thanks for your guest book entries so far, it is nice to get this sort of feedback for the work of the SuSanA and the SuSanA secretariat (most of the leg work of the secretariat is being carried out by Rahul Ingle and Steffen Blume).

Big congrats for this award for innovation. Wish him all the best to keepon continuing more innovations making more affordable ans accessible by larger community

On behalf of all sustainable sanitation practicners in India,my heartly congratulations. May God bless you!

I would like to take this opportunity to send my heartfelt congratulations to Peter Morgan for the AMCOW award that he recieved recently. It was an effort worth recognition. He has contributed a lot in sustainable sanitation. He is realy a role model for Ecosanees. Bravo! peter for that.

Many congratulations to Dr Peter Morgan and may common sense long survive in this world.

Public Hygiene Lets Us Stay Human, or PHLUSH, will have two presentations at the World Toilet Summit & Expo in Singapore. While our focus is primarily urban public restrooms, we have been asked for technical assistance from a partner needing a composting public toilet, possibly with a urine collection system. The site is unserved by water or electricity but is on a major city bicycle path near a light rail transit center. We look forward to meeting SuSanA members at the Summit and would appreciate help with this matter. We also welcome guest blog posts on our website www.phlush.org

It good to be part of the sustainable sanitation community and we are ready to participate with our special knowledge with product design and the sanitation business development model that we aare working with. The information available from the SuSanA network has been of great help to us in the development phase.

I feel proud to be a member of this alliance. I believe this site would be very much useful for the sector practitioners, researchers, policy makers, experts etc. The issue sustainable sanitation movement has got the global momentum where this alliance may play vital role for overall improvement of the global situation. The government of Bangladesh has set up a target of achieving 100 percent sanitation coverage by 2013. Already, we have achieved a significant success on the issue; present coverage is 88%. I’ll provide my effort to share my experiences is this site. Hope would also get information from other countries.

Hello everyone. It is good to be part of such a dynamic group of individuals that dedicate their lives to the most important subject in the third sector today.

SuSanA is a great platform for connecting with all different types of partners - perhaps it is becoming a one-stop shop to get going with sustainable sanitation! It is also a good feeling to know that so many other groups are working with sustainable sanitation.

It is approximately two years since I joined SuSanA and I must admit it has been a great experience. SuSanA has been of great help as resourceful center an alliance tat brings all sanitation practitioners globally together. This alliance must be strengthened to continue in existence and more organizations should be encouraged to join as it provides a good platform for sanitation practitioners as we strive to achieve the MDG goal on ensuring more people especially from the developing world have access to sanitation by 2015. The secretariat based at Eschborn Germany also needs a commendation for the good work they are doing to ensure that the organization is lively and focused. Otherwise I would want to encourage more individuals and organizations to join the alliance and actively participate in its activities. Kennedy

Dear all, So far SuSanA has brought together an incredible number of interesting people, amount of knowledge and drive. For the Alliance to move sustainable sanitation issues to a higher political level one next step would probably be to specifically reach out to those who are not yet convinced, i.e. explore all contacts to the IWA, the European Technology Platform, the World Water Forum, various other international and national water bodies, but also non water related decision making, decision preparing and funding bodies, linked to agriculture, to urban planning,..., the EIB, the EBRD, the various WB branches and regional bodies... While this has already happened through existing contacts of our large alliance, a strategy for the outreach could accelerate change towards sustainable sanitation. best wishes, Martin

SuSanA started as a group in 2007 preparing to celebrate the UN International Year of Sanitation 2008. We found so much synergies together that we decided that we should stay a Knowledge Group sharing and learning together. Today, it is no doubt the largest collection of sanitation experts in the world and I believe we need structures to maintain this momentum so that the world can benefit from the existence of such a driver for better, sustainable and ecological sanitation for now and the future.

Dear all, It is my pleasure to leave the first entry in this new guest book!! I look forward to reading your comments about SuSanA in general or the SuSanA website in particular. Myself and Steffen Blume, who works in the GTZ ecosan team and who acts as the administrator for the SuSanA website, are curious if you will enjoy this guest book function and if it leads to greater interactivity between the SuSanA members (which is our aim). Greetings from Eschborn, Elisabeth von Münch (GTZ ecosan and SuSanA secretariat)
