Thank you for your request.

The Centre of Excellence in Water and Sanitation offers short courses once per year. We do have a minimum of 8 participants to run a customized course whereby you could set the dates at your convenience.

Low-cost sanitation (3 full days)
The focus of this course will be low-cost sanitation in support of ending open defecation in rural areas of Malawi using locally available materials. A practical exercise will be included to build a corbelled latrine, suitable for rural households and being used throughout Malawi to build an improved pit latrine themself. There is an emphasis in this course on both equity and equality for sanitation access to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. The course will also cover basic principles of effective sanitation marketing programs. Participants should dress for field work. Fee per participant is MK150,000 (approximately USD$200).
