What is a perspective?

Perspectives are different frameworks from which to explore the knowledge around sustainable sanitation and water management.

This allows you to quickly navigate to the content of your particular interest while promoting the holistic understanding of sustainable sanitation and water management.

The case studies provided in this report emphasize the pivotal role of ecosystems in sustainable urban water supply and sanitation.
