Pilot Project

EcoSanRes is carrying out various implementation projects in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and Latin America.

Funds have been allocated strategically in order to catalyse regional activities. The attempt is to develop workable solutions through participatory involvement.

A logical framework has been devised that can be applied to the development of ecosan projects in specific regions. The process of steps for EcoSanRes regional projects range as follows:

Logical Framework

  • initial contacts taken to identify targets, possible collaborators and institutional ownership
  • organisation of courses, seminars and workshops to consolidate interest, build capacity, transfer expertise and plan activities
  • planning and funding development
  • pre-feasibility study for regional pilot project
  • detailed planning phase
  • implementation of pilot project
  • monitoring and evaluation

Criteria for Pilot Projects

  • optimise dissemination factor
  • gender impact
  • appropriate knowledge
  • political support
  • right people
  • strong local ownership
  • inclusion through reference group
  • training – local research
  • build on what is already on-going
  • Where – rural or urban?
  • clear objectives
