Thank you to those who have already completed this short survey on attitudes and perceptions towards Emergency FSM. We are still collecting responses from practitioners, so am bringing up this post for those who may have missed it. I am attaching a preview of the survey for those interested.



Thank you for your continued support.

Greetings WASH professionals and enthusiasts!

I am seeking your immediate assistance in filling out the following survey on emergency sanitation priorities and fecal sludge management in emergencies. Your responses directly support my graduate research, which has unfortunately been disrupted by COVID-19, so your time is greatly appreciated.

FSM in Emergencies Survey: University of Oxford-  forms.office.com/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx...VDY5OU9TQzBWTTJLSi4u

Survey Information:

• Who is this for? All humanitarian and emergency WASH professionals
• What is Faecal Sludge Management (FSM): FSM is the process of containing, emptying, transporting, treating, and then disposing or reusing fecal sludge.
• Purpose of Survey: This survey inquires about the importance of FSM in WASH responses during first-phase emergencies (approximately the first 6 months of the response) and whether later stages of the FSM chain are prioritized in emergencies. The results of this study will estimate demand for FSM products and guidance among humanitarian WASH practitioners. Survey results will be shared within the wider emergency WASH sector after publication of this research (September-November 2020).
• Estimated Duration of Survey: 5 minutes
• Consent and Confidentiality: All responses are anonymous. By completing this survey, you agree to have your responses published in support of this research.

Please let me know if you have any further questions, thank you very much for your attention during these unprecedented times!
