On November 1st, the Sustainable Sanitation and Water Management toolbox went online. The SSWM toolbox is an integrated capacity development support from Seecon International, which links up sustainable sanitation, agriculture and water management. It contains a guided exercise to prioritise and understand one’s local problems, a large compilation of factsheets on hardware and software tools and approaches, the tools you need to plan for and implement solutions – topped with further readings, links, a library, glossary, ready-made powerpoints and soon also a train-the-trainers section. The whole Toolbox is open-source and for free. Use it, and spread the news.
