Water Supply & Sanitation Collaborative Council (WSSCC) services

Sanitation

Household Centered Environmental Sanitation Services

Centralized, top-down planning of the sanitation sector has been largely ineffective in providing sanitation services to those in need. Community-centred approaches explore another way which focuses on individuals and households.

Sanitation Financing Services

Improved sanitation and water in developing countries yield an average of about US$ 9 for every one dollar spent, resulting in huge savings in health care costs and gains in productive days.

Solid Waste Management Services

The management of municipal solid waste is one of the major challenges worldwide, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.
Effective solid waste management to reduce health risks and improve living conditions while putting people at the centre of planning, implementation, and monitoring is a core concern of WSSCC.

Sustainable Sanitation Services

Sanitation systems are often extraordinary complex and their sustainability is neither easy to plan nor to achieve. The concept of sustainable sanitation refers to decision-making that considers health, environment, technology, finance, and sociocultural aspects.

Ecological Sanitation Services

Most people , regard human excreta and wastewater as  smelly and disgusting to get rid of as quick as possible. But why do we “waste” something valuable? Ecological sanitation considers human excreta and household wastewater as resources that can be safely collected, treated, and reused in a variety of ways.
