Training on Preparation of Shit Flow Diagrams (SFDs)

Date: October 9-10, 2020
Venue: AEETI, Nimli, Rajasthan, India 

Background
Mapping excreta of a city is increasingly used to analyze the sanitation in urban areas.An excreta flow diagram (also often described as shit flow diagram), can help to achieve this by offering a new and innovative way to engage sanitation experts, political leaders and civil society in coordinated discussions about excreta management in their city. 

An excreta flow diagram (also often described as shit flow diagram, SFD) is a tool to readily understand and communicate how excreta physically flows through a city or town. It shows how excreta is or is not contained as it moves from defecation to disposal or end-use, and the fate of all excreta generated. An accompanying report describes the service delivery context of the city or town. For more information on SFDs visit sfd.susana.org.
