The toilet is called “Pia Fantastica”, a toilet that besides being colourful and being the cheapest sanitation solution on the market, is made on concrete so is very resistant.
Manuel Gungulo and his team are also currently testing the use of Black Soldier fly larvae that inoculated in the pit, can consume the faecal sludge reducing the need for emptying. In addition to Pia Fantastica and the BSF larvae he want to promote environmental awareness campaigns in the neighbourhoods about sanitation, hygiene and environmental health. The ideas of Susamati was prized last year as top 3 best solutions for Africa and Top 16 globally by the Climate Launchpad.
