Awareness regarding FSM among high level policy makers, Paurashavas leadership, and people in general is very limited.\u00a0 For the successful implementation of the planned and future FSM\/sanitation projects, there is also a dire need to increase the capacity of staff members within the DPHE and Paurashavas on all aspects of fecal sludge management (FSM). However, there is a lack of trainers and appropriate training materials. The country also lacks a proper \u201cplatform\u201d for providing continued capacity building support to the sanitation\/FSM sector.<\/p>\n
Hence, the project is to support scaling City Wide Inclusive Sanitation (CWIS) and FSM services in Bangladesh through a national level capacity building program. The specific objectives include: (a) to raise awareness among major stakeholders, including high level policy makers, LGI leadership and officials regarding FSM, and formulate necessary plans, regulations, guidelines , in an effort to create an enabling environment for mainstreaming the IRF in urban centers of Bangladesh; (b) enhance capacity of LGIs, DPHE, LGED, and other stakeholders for planning, implementation, and monitoring of development bank and GoB funded projects involving city-wide inclusive sanitation services including FSM; and (c) development of a national capacity building platform for providing continued capacity building support to all sector stakeholder.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
