The Public Health Technician manual comes to complete a collection of practical guides published since 1988 and is particulary intende for the health workers who have to bring water supply, sanitation and hygiene in scarcity situations.
The guide starts with an introduction defining needs in terms of site planning, then is divided into three main chapters, covering the following subjects :
- Water in camps of displaced people : supply, assessment of quality, and treatment methods;
- Sanitation in emergency situations : disposal, of excreta, refuse, wastewater and run-off;
- Vector control : basic control strategies, plus technical briefs on the most common products and application equipment.
At the end of each chapter there are technical briefs describing different techniques commonly used in the field, chosen for their simplicity of implementation.
There is an English / French / Spanish glossary at the end of the guide to give a definition as clear as possible of the technical terms used in the guide, or those which are used every day in this field.
