An important goal of the Fecal Sludge Testing Protocol is to facilitate laboratory personnel, researchers, or students in testing various characterizing parameters. The protocol also provides a step-by-step guide for laboratory users to conduct tests on different types of fecal sludge, such as liquid, solid, and slurry.

To combat the salinity problem in coastal areas, the Department of Public Health Engineering (DPHE) has installed 970 solar desalination units in 61 Upazilas of 16 coastal districts under the green pilot project titled “Safe Water Supply Project through Environment-Friendly Solar Desalination Unit”. The solar-powered water desalination system produces pure and safe water from any source and has been introduced as a new alternative water supply system to mitigate the scarcity of drinking water in coastal areas. The system functions not only as a solar desalination system but also as a rainwater harvesting system.

The conference provided a crucial platform for the presentation of their research on the global stage and enabled them to transparently share challenges, successes, and contributions related to CWIS and sanitation service delivery with regional and global partners.

Sakhipur municipality in Tangail district has a population of 30,028 spread across an area of 13.77 sq. km. Despite having a functioning faecal sludge management (FSM) system since 2015, the municipality faces challenges due to population growth and inadequate sanitation. The development of a Sanitation Safety Plan (SSP) aims to improve sanitation facilities, protect public health, and guide investment decisions in Sakhipur municipality.

The ‘National Compendium of Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) Technologies for Disaster Response’ has been prepared through a consultative process involving organizations belonging to the WASH cluster. Its purpose is to address challenges related to disasters and post-disaster situations. This compilation includes technologies suitable for disaster and post-disaster scenarios, which will be promoted and implemented as appropriate solutions for climate-resilient disaster preparedness.

“দুর্যোগ মোকাবিলায় পানি, স্যানিটেশন ও হাইজিন প্রযুক্তিসমূহের জাতীয় সংকলন” দুর্যোগকালীন জরুরি এবং দুর্যোগ পরবর্তী তাৎক্ষণিক পুনরুদ্ধার পর্যায়ে পানি সরবরাহ,স্যানিটেশন ও স্বাস্থ্যবিধি কার্যকম পরিকল্পনা এবং বাস্তবায়নের জন্য একটি গুরুত্বপূর্ণ দিক হিসেবে গণ্য হবে।

An important goal of this protocol is to facilitate laboratory personnel, researchers, or students for testing different characterizing parameters. The protocol also provides step-by-step guide to laboratory users to conduct tests for different fecal sludge types (liquid, solid, slurry etc.). Various Modules and Protocols testing fecal sludge parameters have been reviewed and adapted to the local context considering the modus operandi of the available equipment.
