A School Challenged by an ECOSAN Pilot Project
Ecosan or Ecosin?

Ecological sanitation (ecosan) pilot projects in Rwanda go back some years. However, there is not much known about the results of these experiences. What did the WASH sector learn from the ecosan pilot projects? What are the implications for sanitation development in Rwanda? Based on a cursory investigation at a school in Karwasa, this article contributes to the ecosan discussion by describing the school’s efforts to implement ecosan, how it got stuck along the way and eventually became an unfinished story.
