Dear David.

I attended the launch of the Resource Recovery Toolbox back in May and found it to be a very promising addition to the sector’s resources.

Since then, I’ve been wondering how the uptake and response from the sector has been. Have you been able to track usage, document any interventions, or gather feedback from practitioners? I’m also curious about any emerging outcomes, lessons learned, or updates.

It would be great to hear how it’s performing in practice and whether there are opportunities for the SuSanA community and Individual practitioners to contribute to its growth and improvement.

Kind regards,
Chaiwe

Dear Colleagues,
As many of you know, we have over the past year been developing the Resource Recovery Toolbox, an online platform designed to make decision-support tools for planning and implementing resource recovery from sanitation (and other related organic waste streams) more discoverable and accessible. The platform is meant to collate resource recovery content, in a way that complements other thematic platforms in the SuSanA community like the Sanitation Workers Hub, the SFD portal and Sani-Hub etc. We are now pleased to invite you to a preview and soft launch of the Resource Recovery Toolbox, where you get a peek at what we have been working on.

🗓 Date: 12 May 2025
🕑 Time: 14:00 CET

About the Toolbox
The Resource Recovery Toolbox is an open-access online platform developed by the Stockholm Environment Institute (SEI) in collaboration with Dotwerkstatt, Baobab Tech, and the Sustainable Sanitation Alliance (SuSanA). It curates and organizes tools—ranging from software and datasets to guidelines and case studies—making it easier for practitioners, planners, and researchers to access and apply them in the field of sanitation, waste management, and circular economy.

What to expect during the soft launch:

• A brief introduction to the project and partners
• A live preview of the website and its main features
• Space for your feedback and suggestions
• Networking with others engaged in resource recovery and sanitation

This session is especially relevant for professionals working on resource recovery, sanitation systems, circular economy, or sustainable waste management. Your input will help us refine the platform to better meet the needs of the community.

📝 RSVP: No registration needed—just join via the Zoom link above.

Feel free to forward this invitation to colleagues or others who may be interested.
We look forward to your participation and feedback!
