Everest Sanitation Alliance Public Toilets
Sagarmatha National Park, Nepal
 
The Everest Sanitation Alliance, an unofficial partnership between AWBS, Do Good Sh*t, and local champion Tenzing Sherpa, has designed a composting toilet facility for Phortse, Nepal. Construction of this prototype is nearly complete and we are looking forward to evaluating the building and the waste management system for potential use at several dozen other sites along the Everest Base Camp Trek.
