Overview of the Seminar

The seminar included an in-depth discussion on CLTS as well as faecal sludge management and reuse. The session demonstrated how SuSanA uses internet-based communication tools (facebook, discussion groups, flickr, youtube) to assist learning in the network and to reach out to other sectors, such as urban planning, public health, agriculture, emergency response.

Community-led total sanitation (CLTS) has successfully created demand for sanitation in many countries and has helped to increase access, particularly in rural areas. SuSanA partner Kamal Kar from CLTS Foundation discussed sustainability concerns: how to keep the communities free from open defecation after the first generation of pit latrines - built after CLTS triggering - have filled up with faecal sludge. SuSanA partner Jay Baghwan from the Water Research Commission in South Africa discussed research carried out that has analysed options for faecal sludge management which are of relevance for local government institutions and the private sector.

SuSanA’s current activities were shared and its engagement in the Five-Year Drive for Sustainable Sanitation (5YD) discussed. SuSanA aims to tailor knowledge to provide support to African policy makers and practitioners so that sanitation targets can be met in a sustainable manner.

The seminar session took place on Tuesday 19 July 2011 in Session S4 Sustainable Sanitation from 10:00 to 13:00.
