SFD’s work in environment sector focuses on sanitation:

  1. Wastewater management
  2. Solid Waste management

Under waste water management sewerage systems may be supported in very poor urban neighbourhoods. Community contribution is in the form of labor.

In poor rural and urban areas without proper sewerage and sanitation, waste water management may be supported. Here contribution, either in cash or labor must be at least 20% of total cost

In better-off urban areas where the community is willing to contribute at least 40% of total cost, SFD can offer support.

Support to solid waste management may include provision of waste containers and other equipment, the preparation of dumping sits, establishing solid waste management systems, building rehabilitating & equipping slaughterhouses and training and awareness raising.

Full details of eligibility criteria are given in the Guidelines for Operations.

To scale up hygienic sanitation, SFD has adopted the approach of community led total sanitation which empowers the communities to solve their sanitation problems without any subsidy. This is achieved through facilitating the communities to analyse their sanitation problems based on the three pillars, shame, disgust, and fear. Far more details of the approach please refer to “Guidelines of community Led Total sanitation
