People living in Kampala rely heavily on traditional pit latrines in the absence of flushing toilets. Latrines are easily flooded, increasing the risk of diarrheal disease. Sanitation Africa represents a series of innovative sanitation technologies focussed to improve urban sanitation. Appropriate technologies are used to improve pit latrines, to provide an efficient emptying service, to transport and treat faecal sludge and to re-use treated sludge.
