The 'Potsdam Sustainability Campus Programme' translates the WASH-Food-Energy nexus into a practical reality for the Dunoon community by transforming sanitation from a service burden into a source of local opportunity.
Dunoon Deserves Dignity
The new Dignity Hub is more than an installation — it's a commitment to hygiene and sustainability. By integrating Water Efficient Sanitation Systems (WESS) and Non-Sewered Sanitation (NSS), we are providing essential shower and handwashing facilities alongside waste management and treatment. This isn't just an installation; it’s a commitment to sustainable health and human dignity.
