The Sanitation Value Chain: Designing Sanitation Systems as Eco-Community-Value System

“The Sanitation Value Chain: Designing Sanitation Systems as Eco-Community-Value System” (Sanitation Project, FY2017-2021) is
one of the projects of Research Institute for Humanity and Nature (RIHN), JAPAN.

Generally, “sanitation” refers to the facilities of processing human urine and faeces for the safe disposal.
We try to transform it into one focused on the creation of value.
