School Sanitation

This publication provides information on how  to make school sanitation sustainable and succesfull. The focus is on urine diverting dry school toilet (UDDT) systems (or often called ecosan systems) which were successfully implemented by WECF together with local partners in different countries of the EECCA region. UDD toilets offer high quality and comfort. Because of the separation technology in the toilet device, these toilets do not smell or attract flies. For the operation, no water is used for flushing. Water is however needed for the hand washing facilities which are always included in the projects.

The content of this publication is based on the experiences of  WECF and its partners on how to provide hygienic, affordable and indoor sanitation in areas without a functioning wastewater system as they are also implemented in sub-urban areas, with examples from Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia.

This publication is in particular intended for school directors and teachers, administration employees, engineers, architects and construction workers from the field and NGOs, and can be downloaded here.
