SAFE SANITATION FOR ALL
Introductory course on ensuring safety and dignity across sanitation sector
(Short term course)

  2- day live online session on safe sanitation  

WHY SHOULD YOU ENROLL?

Why do we continue to read about sanitation worker deaths despite strong regulations? Why does the government not ensure these workers of these basic rights? What attempts have been made at national, state or city levels to change this? What needs to be done- stronger enforcement or higher budgets or training and sensitization of employers? are women sanitation workers equally vulnerable as men?

If these questions concern you and you want to better understand how to solve these complex inter-related issues, then this course is for you. We hope to assist you to weave these into your work streams.
