Online Training on Tools and Approaches for Water and Sanitation Management

Background
Rapid urban growth and unplanned development has led to poor provisioning of basic utility services such as access to water and sanitation. There is a need to understand that the water & sanitation management are not restricted only to centralized services and could be done at various levels – Individual building, Neighborhood, City and Sub-basin/basin levels. The planning and management for achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) requires utilization of various tools and approaches which could be helpful in achieving one or more of these goals. The tools and approaches could be preventive or reactive in nature or they could be focused around a single/multiple dimension (social, economic or environment).

Based on demand and understanding the need of building capacity of stakeholders for creating a water and sanitation prudent society, the School of Water and Waste at Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) is organizing a training programme on “Tools and Approaches for Water and Sanitation Management.
