Summary
Asia’s development over the past several decades has resulted in significant progress in the buildup of reliable sanitation infrastructure. However, challenges remain toward ensuring that sanitation services are environmentally, financially, and technically sustainable. These needs can be addressed through city- and national-level sanitation policies and investments based on city-wide inclusive sanitation strategy that helps optimize sanitation service performance and service delivery.
Held at Toyo University in Tokyo, this 13-day ADBI-Toyo University training program for select policy makers from developing Asia and experts examined city-wide inclusive sanitation policy and innovation challenges and opportunities in the region. It focused on sanitation project experiences in Japan and recommendations for the region.
