conference contribution
posted on 2018-02-12, 15:07 authored by Parneet Paul, Lisa K. LumbaoThis practitioner’s paper shares and discusses recent outcomes of an ongoing project that formulates and implements a
city-wide wastewater management programme in four selected cities of the Philippines. The paper initially discusses the
need for urban sanitation in the Philippine context, and then moves on to discuss the framework for this project and its
aims and objectives. Detail is given on how the wastewater management scheme is being implemented under the Philippine
government’s broader umbrella policy and strategy to improve the urban and peri-urban environment. This project
takes all the experiences and lessons learnt from previous projects and initiatives of a similar nature, particularly the
stakeholder driven approach, and replicates them in the Philippine context.
