Dear Elisabeth and All

My one presentation on "Toilet linked biogas plant: a sustainable sanitation option" in the WTS held in January 2015 in Delhi, is now attached.

Dear Pawan,

It seems that the attachment of your presentation didn't succeed? Can you please post it again?

Thanks for giving us this feedback about the conference. I hope some more people will tell us about their impressions, too I think such feedback is important. And I will ask the organisers if they could please upload all the presentations.

I checked their website but only found - as you said - some photos:
wtsindia.in/photoGallery.aspx
(it's set up in a slide show mode, you have to wait a moment for the next picture to appear automatically)

Regards,
Elisabeth

Dear Joe and all

I was invited to present paper in the WTO held in Delhi on 19-20, January and presented a paper on toilet linked biogas plant. Time allotted was very short. There was more time for discussion. It was good.My presentation is attached.
Perhaps all presentations are not available on site. WTO had posted all important photos of the conference, but not presentations.
regards
Pawan

Did anyone go? Are the presentations all available?

World Toilet Summit India in January 2015 will act as a platform to amplify Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s Swachh Bharat campaign, achieve policy outcomes and mobilise partnerships to address India’s sanitation crisis. The largest global event on toilets and sanitation, the summit will involve local and international NGOs, corporations, agencies, funders and intermediaries, and the government, to share, learn and collaborate to end open defecation in India.

During the summit, sessions on global best practice and the scope for public-private partnership for sanitation will also be organised. The impact that education may have on sanitation will be deliberated with a focus on ways to make our schools a better place.
