Sustainable Sanitation for the 21st Century

A sourcebook for training is now available for free download

This sourcebook is the result of experiences gained over the last decade from more than 300 participants attending an international training course and ongoing research.


Sustainable Sanitation aims at protecting human and environmental health through safe use and reuse of available resources

Both Sourcebook and set of 600 animated PowerPoints provide the knowledge and skills required to address the five improvements below.

  1. There is no water scarcity in cities, only poor management of the available water.
  2. Morbidity can be reduced through washing hands and safe handling of child faeces.
  3. Future toxic shocks can be avoided through harnessing our chemical society by source control of products.
  4. Food security can be achieved through reduced wastage, recycling of nutrients and changes in diets.
  5. Households and residents hold the key to improvements mainly through improved sanitation routines, and also through exercising the power as consumers and voters.


The material is multi-disciplinary and covers management issues, town planning, civil and environmental engineering, public health, urban agriculture, etc.

- You can access information and useful references from the Sourcebook (700 pages in pdf format)

- You can combine your own training material with the PowerPoints you pick out of this set of 600 slides. Below are two examples:
