Main take away: there is NO SILVER BULLET
The WorldBank and WSP played an important role especially during the start of the Water and Sanitation Decade. Some important documents are shown below (with links to the documents). In recent years the WorldBank promoted the use of SFDs.
The UNDP, especially the Low Cost Sanitation Investment Project in Bandung in 1985 produced interesting documents. Another ground-braking initiatives were the URBAN LOW COST SANITATION DEMONSTRATION PROJECT (INT/81/04 7-Malawi) and URBAN TECHNICAL SERVICES (MLW/86/015).
