Water and Cultural Diversity: An Examination of water in Japanese, Arabic, European and African Cultures

In all places, and at all times, the relationship between water and culture has been a profound, complex and ambivalent one. Culture has an important influence on how users of water perceive this vital natural resource, and determines their behaviour in relation to it. If users are to participate meaningfully in the sustainable management of water, cultural behaviours will have to be taken into account.
Aware of this necessity, the French Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development decided to support, in the frame of the Franco_japanese cooperation, an initial contribution on the theme of water and cultural diversity which was developed by the Franco-Japanese Centre/ Alliance francaise in Osaka, on the occasion of the 3rd World Water Forum in Kyoto from the 16th to the 23rd of March 2003.
By taking account of cultural diversity in sustainable development, in addition to the usual economic, social and environmental issues, we will help to humanize the globalization process.
This discussion will “illuminate” and assess the long history linking civilizations to water, by focusing in particular on European, Japanese, Arabic and African cultures.
Intended for a wide audience, this publication will allow the reader to dive into the strange world of water myths, to discover their similarities and permanence from one civilization to another, to explore extreme situations of drought and flood, and the sacred as well as malevolent aspects of water.
These cultural elements represent an innovative strating point from which to raise the general public’s awareness of water management, until now largely the reserve of specialists.

First Adapt, Then Act! (A Booklet to Promote Safer Food in Diverse Settings)

The information provided by the food safety (FOS) messages in the WHO Five Keys to Food Safety Foster needs to be disseminated by adapting the messages to specific target populations. For this purpose, WHO issued the brochure, “Bringing Food Safety Home”, for use globally. Inspired by this initiative, WHO’s Regional Office for Siuth East Asia has carried forward this effort.
The first step in this direction has been the translation of the original English version into 11 of the main languages spoken in South Asia. The translations were done by national food safety experts from the concerned countries.
“First Adopt, Then Act!” is the second step. The booklet gives examples of how the “Five Keys” can be further communicated through locally-adapted awareness materials.
The explanations, comments and suggestions given below are not exhaustive but only illuminate some of the contextual and cultural issues that would need to be considered while preparing FOS promotional materials. The contents in this document can be useful for those engaged in promoting safer food to audiences such as small-and medium-scale food and restaurant business owners, street food vendors, food/ sanitary inspectors, hospitality business students, consumer organizations, school teachers and secondary school students.

Menciptakan Rumah Sehat (52 Tips agar rumah menjadi sehat dan nyaman)

Bagi sebagian orang, rumah sehat cukup dipel, disapu, dan banyak tanamannya. Padahal belum tentu sehat secara psikologis maupun fisiologis. Rumah dikatakan sehat juka perabot diatur dan dikelompokkan sesuai fungsinya, ventilasi dan pencahayaan yang cukup, serta pemilihan material yang aman bagi kesehatan. Akibat dari kurangnya pemahaman tentang ”manajemen ruang“, penghuni rumah akan kurang nyaman beraktivitas, banyak waktu terbuang, stres, dan lain-lain.
Selain pemaparan tentang rumah sehat beserta faktor-faktor pendukungnya, buku ini juga menyajikan 52 tips untuk menciptakan rumah sehat. Dengan bahasa yang sederhana dan mudah dimengerti, buku ini bisa menjadi pegangan bagi Anda yang menginginkan rumah sehat ”sebenarnya“.

Sanitation and Diasease Health Aspects of Excreta and Wastewater Management (World Bank Studies in Water Supply and Sanitation 3)

The United Nations has designated the 1980s as the International Drinking Water Supply and Sanittaion Decade. Its goal is to provide two of the most fundamental human needs – safe water and sanitary disposal of human wastes-to all people. Since 1976, Bank staff and researchers from various countries have been analyzing the economic, environmental, health, and sociological effects of various technologies to identify the most appropriate systems for the needs and resources of different areas. The research has included field investigations in nineteen countries.
This book, the third volume of the series, addresses the public health, microbiological and parasitological aspects of sanitation. In all countries, public health is of central importance in the design and implementation of excreta disposal projects, and better health is the main social and economic benefit that planners and economists hope to realize by investing in excreta disposal systems. To achieve this gain, as much information as possible is needed about the interaction of excreta and health-information concerning not only broad epidemiological issues of disease prevention through improved excreta disposal, but also the effect of particular excreta disposal and reuse technologies on the survival and dissemination of particular pathogens.

The United Nations has designated the 1980s as the International Drinking Water Supply and Sanittaion Decade. Its goal is to provide two of the most fundamental human needs – safe water and sanitary disposal of human wastes-to all people. Since 1976, Bank staff and researchers from various countries have been analyzing the economic, environmental, health, and sociological effects of various technologies to identify the most appropriate systems for the needs and resources of different areas. The research has included field investigations in nineteen countries.
This manual presents the latest field results of the research, summarizes selected portions of other publications on sanitation program planning, and describes the engineering details of alternative sanitation technologies and how they can be upgraded. The guidelines, procedures, and technologies are based on the World Bank’s own research in nineteen countries. The twenty two chapters are divided into three parts; socioeconomic aspects of sanitation program planning, sanitation program planning, and sanitation technology options. The manual is extensively illustrated with technical diagrams of the recommended sanitation systems and their components.
