Welcome

The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine’s Environmental Health Group (EHG) is led by Professor Sandy Cairncross and is concerned with environmental health in developing countries, focusing on the basic problems of water supply, sanitation and the faecal-oral disease cycle.

EHG is almost unique in its combination of engineering with epidemiology, biology, and the social sciences and its members have unusually extensive experience of the implementation and management of environmental health interventions in developing countries.

EHG coordinates a large number of resources including websites.

On this site you will be able to see news items from those other sites and learn all about the work we are involved in.
