A presentation y Paul Kimera (ATC Uganda) on the development of the Uganda Technology Introduction Process (TIP) during the webinar on December 11th "Introducing and scaling up sustainable water and sanitation technologies". In the webinar we shared experience of developing the Technology Applicability Framework (TAF) and Technology Introduction Process (TIP) as tools towards achieving sustainable WASH services, and we introduced participants to the new resource base http://www.washtechnologies.net which is hosted by RWSN. The webinar was organised by IRC, lead organisation of the WASHTech consortium.
