What is a perspective?

Perspectives are different frameworks from which to explore the knowledge around sustainable sanitation and water management. Perspectives are like filters: they compile and structure the information that relate to a given focus theme, region or context. This allows you to quickly navigate to the content of your particular interest while promoting the holistic understanding of sustainable sanitation and water management.

A French carbon dealer (ecosur) has registered a waste-to-energy carbon-offset project in Côte d'Ivoire under the Kyoto Protocol's Clean Development Mechanism. The project is based on the anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste. It's the first CDM project in the West African Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA), and one of the few in sub-Saharan Africa outside of South Africa.
