SUMMARY:South by South Cross Learning Hub Retreat
DESCRIPTION:FSM Network Bangladesh participated in the South-by-South Cross Learning Hub Retreat in Nepal on September 12th–13th\, hosted by Dasra. Throughout the event\, we connected with NFFSM India and CWIS Alliance Nepal. Over 150 stakeholders from South and Southeast Asia joined to exchange insights on enhancing safe and sustainable urban sanitation outcomes in the region. \nThe retreat facilitated an in-depth understanding of the FSTP strategy shared by all participating organizations. Discussions revolved around effective approaches\, emerging technologies\, and private sector involvement in this crucial sector. \nRepresentatives from 7 countries\, including India\, Nepal\, Bangladesh\, the Philippines\, Thailand\, China\, Indonesia\, and Pakistan\, aimed to establish peer networks comprising government officials\, sector experts\, community-based organizations\, development financing institutions\, and the private sector. \nUttam Kumar Saha proudly showcased FSM Bangladesh’s initiatives\, highlighting our dedication to advancing FSM. Our knowledge products were also presented to underscore our commitment. \nThis retreat marks a significant stride toward strengthening the South Asian urban sanitation network. We eagerly anticipate fostering further knowledge-sharing and promoting urban sanitation advancements across South Asia.
