SFD’s work in environment sector focuses on
sanitation:
-
Wastewater management
-
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

sanitation
