Training on Preparation of Shit Flow Diagram (SFD)

For Improved Urban Sanitation Programming at City-Wide Scale
The national policy on faecal sludge and septage management, 2017 released by Government of India is ushering a new era in sanitation value chain management and mainstreaming urban sanitation in India. Similarly, cities of South-Asia and Africa are up in race to achieve city wide sanitation through excreta management.  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 a coordinated discussions about excreta management in their city.

SFD is a tool to readily understand and communicate visualizing 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.

Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) is organizing a full day training on “Preparation of SFD” at the upcoming SuSanA India Chapter meeting, 2018 in Panaji, Goa. The training is for sanitation and faecal sludge management sector players, practitioners and city stakeholders who have interest to learn about this tool.
