Tóm tắt : | 25 p. The World Health Organization Regional Office for Europe considers that the first priority in its environmental hygiene activities should be the control of chemical pollution of industrial origin, but rectification of shortcomings that still exist in basic sanitation should not be neglected. For this reason, the Regional Office for Europe convened a small expert consultation in Copenhagen in December 1976 to identify these shortcomings. The conclusions of the meeting were then used to plan activities under the project “Basic sanitation for European communities.” The participants in the expert consultation considered that the shortcomings in basic sanitation in Europe were chiefly to be found in geographically disadvantaged regions, rural areas and small communities, but were also found among large communities in southern countries. They also considered that the difficulties observed in small communities were due to a lack of skilled technical staff, equipment and financial resources, and to use of wrong technologies. In the light of these conclusions, it was recommended that the Regional Office for Europe convene a working group to collate the experience of different European countries and identify the sanitation system most suitable for the conditions encountered in small communities of the European type. The working group, hosted by the French Government, took place in Rennes on 6–10 November 1978. It brought together 22 participants and 13 observers from 12 different countries. |
