Sanitation Education Program 150406

■ Overview ■
Welcome to “Sanitation Education Program.”
Our project “Resources Oriented Sanitation Science Platform” releases “Sanitation Education Program” which is open educational resource relating to water and sanitation in the world.
　
　
“Can you urge on people who have not have Toilets the necessity of using them?”
　
　
MDGs report 2010 by UN is saying that 48% of the population in developing regions was without basic sanitation in 2008. The two regions facing the greatest challenges are sub-Saharan Africa and Southern Asia, where 69% and 64% of the population, respectively, lack access.
Our project chose three area as pilot sites in Burkina Faso, Indonesia and Zambia and are discussing about resources oriented sanitation system by focusing on the following such related topics as
　- The models for rural area and peri-urban (slum) area
　- The business model for installing sanitation system
　- The technologies for feces, urine and grey water reuse and transportation
　- The agricultural technologies for wise and optimal uses of compost and urine.
　
Engineering for hardware, Agricultural technologies which enhances the value of sanitation, Health science relating to human health and Study of public policy which is to consider how to install the appropriate sanitation system strongly depends on the local culture, environment and social system…
This Educational program contains lecture videos which many experts explain about water and sanitation from the each point of view.
We are strongly hoping that you will be able to find your own solution by comparing the cases in this materials.
