dc.descriptionThe training provides participants with analytical tools, substantive information and skills on how to select, plan and finance appropriate and environmentally sound municipal wastewater management systems. The training is meant for project managers at municipality level, mandated with the task to develop and manage municipal wastewater collection and treatment systems with often very limited resources. The course focuses on four elements: (i) objective oriented planning, (ii) involvement of stakeholders and mobilizing local resources, (iii) conventional and innovative approaches; and (iv) formulation and presentation of proposals. The content is based on the UNEP/WHO/HABITAT/WSSCC guidelines on municipal wastewater management and stresses the need to link water supply and the provision of household sanitation, wastewater collection, treatment and re-use, cost-recovery, and re-allocation to the natural environment. UNEP and its partners are pleased to present this first version of the training manual. UNEP very much welcomes comments to ensure that the course addresses the needs of coastal municipalities.
