Faecal Sludge Management - in The Kathmandu Valley
Pollution of water bodies, mainly the rivers of rapidly growing urban centres, in the developing world is a major environmental concern. Discharge of untreated sewage including faecal sludge generated from on-site sanitation systems, indiscriminate disposal of solid waste are some of the main causes. In addition, lack of adequate infrastructures, institutional capacities and resources further exacerbates the problems.
