Faecal Sludge Management (FSM)

Description
-
Faecal Sludge Management (FSM) is increasingly recognized as essential for public health in urban areas, particularly in developing countries, where the management of faecal sludge from on-site sanitation systems is often inadequate. This training module emphasizes the development of tailored FSM strategies and treatment options, highlighting successful initiatives in regions like West Africa, Southeast Asia, and Latin America that address challenges such as improper disposal and health risks. Key components of FSM include the collection, treatment, and reuse of faecal sludge, with a focus on integrating technical and non-technical aspects, stakeholder involvement, and financial models to improve sanitation practices and public health outcomes.
