The FSM Alliance is excited to take on its role as the new host and organiser for the International Faecal Sludge Management conference (FSM conference). The FSM Alliance was announced at AfricaSan 5/FSM5 in Cape Town, South Africa in 2019 to create a centralised platform for those working in the FSM sub-sector.
FSM6 will be held online, and will draw experience from Asia to address the demands and challenges of the sanitation sector, while also highlighting best practice and lessons learned from around the globe.
Dr. Konstantina Velkushanova- Chairperson of FSM6
Due to the current situation surrounding Covid-19, and the uncertainty of future travel policies, FSMA decided to host FSM6 virtually.
We understand that this is a difficult time, with many things changing, including how we organise and participate in conferences. The safety and security of everyone is of utmost importance.
However, FSMA is still committed to delivering a fresh and dynamic program, as well as bringing the sector together in this new and exciting way!
We also believe that our online program will provide those who haven’t been able to join us in the past- an opportunity to attend, learn, and connect with peers and stakeholders across the sector.
