In October 2022, cewas, in collaboration with the Inter-American Development Bank, conducted a hybrid training course on WSSW (Water, Sanitation, and Solid Waste Management) with the objective of providing young Nicaraguans with the necessary knowledge, skills, and attitudes to propose water, sanitation, and solid waste management systems and services. These solutions aim to address the specific needs of Nicaragua's rural and peri-urban populations while also offering remedies to the challenges faced by these communities.
The course comprised six online sessions that introduced participants to core technologies, which they then applied during a weekend bootcamp held at the American University of Managua. A total of 94 young Nicaraguan participants benefited from this valuable opportunity, gaining extensive knowledge about the water, sanitation, and solid waste management sector in the country.
