@ Ilmari, thank you very much for the SLTS resources you put up. We are starting water & sanitation project in our organisation. I am very optimistic the resources will guide us as we progress.

This is such a vital theme in many communities. Thank you for sharing the links and resource and your experiences! I am presently working on several water and sanitation initiatives with communities in Guatemala. In my experience these two themes also often bridge into the broader questions of health and help support communities with a range of projects. A rallying issue.

Just want to add on Ehsan's earlier reference on School Led Total Sanitation (SLTS) that has infact been developed here in Nepal as an approach taking the schools as entry points into total sanitation programme for the school and community. Currently the approach is being scaled up as important part on government saitation promotion and many areas have reached open defecation status. Still, as with all sanitation appraches some challenges on sustainability and reaching the poorest and some culturally reluctant groups remain.

I am working on waste managment for a small town with no recollection at all. If some one is already working on something similar, let me know please.

I agree with Ehsan. This site - WaterSanitationHygiene.org - also has one of the most beautiful document presentations that I've seen.

Just as an example: http://www.watersanitationhygiene.org/References/Technical%20Resour...

WaterSanitationHygiene.org currently host the largest collection of technical resources on the web. In addition, fledgling forum is growing with hot issues under discussion as diverse as climate change, diarrhoeal disease transmission, reverse osmosis, ecosan, rainwater harvesting and geophysics.
