Encyclopedia MDPI has published a feature on Hashemi’s Sanitation Sustainability Index (HSSI), a groundbreaking tool designed to evaluate the sustainability of sanitation systems before they are built.
The index, first introduced in the journal Sustainability (MDPI) in 2020, combines technical, economic, and social indicators into a single score ranging from 0 to 1. This allows policymakers and communities to compare different sanitation systems in terms of long-term viability, cost-effectiveness, and public acceptance.
The video abstract and detailed explanation are now available on Encyclopedia MDPI, making the research accessible to a wider audience. This marks another step in bridging academic research with practical, community-level applications.
Encyclopedia MDPI’s coverage of Hashemi’s Sanitation Sustainability Index underscores the growing importance of evidence-based, community-driven sanitation planning. With sustainability at the forefront of global development goals, tools like HSSI are poised to shape the future of public health and environmental management.
