Main focus of the meeting was the detailed discussion on the activities of the joint road map of the SuSanA.
On the first day of the meeting (Tuesday, May 6th 2008) the current state and progress of the different thematic SuSanA working groups was discussed, with emphasis on their aimed products, time frame and further proceeding. In addition future options for the organisational structure of the SuSanA were discussed as well. On the second day (Wednesday, May 7th 2008) the three SuSanA vision documents were discussed, focussing particularly on the progress of the 2nd vision document ‘sustainable pathways to attain the sanitation MDGs’. Furthermore a half-day-workshop on “financing sustainable sanitation” took place. This document follows the chronological structure of the meeting (see agenda) and summarises statements, results and commitments of the different partners.
