Faecal waste: the next sanitation challenge
The management of faecal sludge from onsite sanitation systems in many areas of the world has yet to be properly addressed, with subsequent impacts on human health and the environment. LINDA STRANDE, an editor and author of the new IWA Publishing book ‘Faecal Sludge Management – Systems Approach to Implementation and Operation’, explains how the importance of faecal sludge management is finally being acknowledged, introduces some of the unique challenges of working in the field, and looks at the steps required for sanitation to move forward.

Best regards,
Linda
