To improve environmental and health conditions, fecal sludge management (FSM) is a critical component of humanitarian response. To provide evidence-based recommendations for FSM, I conducted a literature review of FSM technologies for emergencies. I identified 166 documents, of which 141 were on different FSM technologies, and 25 studies were on the Rohingya refugee camp's FSM conditions. I: 1) summarized descriptions of different types of technologies for five stages of FSM; 2) presented conditions of FSM facilities in the Rohingya refugee camps; 3) identified several necessary design considerations before implementing FSM technologies; and 4) presented criteria for future studies to assess the appropriate FSM technologies in the context of Rohingya refugee camps. In this thesis, the summary of knowledge on FSM for emergencies, the design considerations, and the criteria for future studies for FSM of the Rohingya refugee camps provide a framework for evidence-based support for improving existing FSM conditions.
