Following rapid population increase and industrial development, the ever increasing environmental pollution and the sanitation-related problem associated are no longer regional or local but have become an issue requiring the globally dimensional concern and the provision of problem-solving alternative. Especially, since most of the problems resulted from the inappropriate sewerage and the lack of sewage treatment system are in the state of seriously occurring in economically underdeveloped regions, their significance is enormous. United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) has been making efforts on establishing the technology selection methodology applicable in developing countries, through the accurate status investigation and analysis for the wastewater management state in Asian and African regions, and the sanitation management guideline utilizable by political leaders (PLs) or decision-makers (DMs). As part of this effort, Korea Institute of Water Environment (KIWE), together with the UNEP, selected China and Vietnam (in Asia) and Kenya and Ethiopia (in Africa) as subject countries of investigation and performed the on-site sanitation management investigation and analysis in this research. Results obtained from the on-site investigation were analyzed, and in order to be helpful on establishing strategy for the sanitation management in underdeveloped countries, the strategic framework (SF) has been made based on characterized results. |
