SuSanA Forum- Re: Marketing training for some sales representatives who will market services in Peri Urban Areas (Lusaka, Zambia) - by: Sibongile September 29, 2016Hi Trevor, Thanks for your thoughts and indeed I was refering to Chazanga and Kanyama. We currently have two marketing officers, one in each PUA. Previously no marketing was done about the FSM services offered. it was merely an informative exercise to create awareness. Now we would like to ensure that the marketing officers engage with the communities with t […]

This is based both on the general observation that school curricular are way to theoretical in most countries (i.e. not actually teaching life skills) and that if they had such classes they would also have more technically minded teachers/staff that could ma […]
- Re: Marketing Training on FSM Facilties - by: tmsinnovation September 28, 2016Dear Sibo I would be really interested in what your current thinking and ideas are around "marketing training for some sales representatives who will market services in Peri Urban Areas". I presume that the areas are Kanyama and Chazanga. If you were able to share some of your thoughts, then the forum members would better be able to engage and add […]
- Re: Theme 2: Implementation Level - by: PaminFinland September 28, 2016Hi, you asked about whether female teachers have to miss school also.

Sanitation Hackathon Field Visits

Yeah great, let’s have a database where we collect some random data. Oh, and let’s also do this in East Africa where we only have 1000+ NGOs.

I’d love to have a reporting app (which would already be achieved via Frontline SMS or Ushahidi), but I’d also love to see much more action on the data use side. Reliable data that provides for tangible decisions.
Plus: who will guarantee that there is more to happen once the hackathon hype is gone? And who will pay devs in Europe to get to know about the equally poor face of public toilets in the EU?
