Wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) is regarded as a support tool for detecting and assessing the prevalence of infectious diseases at population level. For rural, remote, resource-constrained communities with little access to other public health monitoring tools, WBE can be low-cost approach filling gaps in knowledge inform risk assessment decision-making. This rapid review explores discusses unique considerations key settings, focus on detection SARS-CoV-2 virus, which has rapidly expanded infrastructure globally. To frame our understanding possibilities First Nations Alberta, we address following questions: What are challenges under similar contexts or settings? resources expertise required WBE? identifies several communities, including costs, accessibility, operator capacity, wastewater infrastructure, data mobilization—highlighting need equity WBE. In summary, most require additional from external research and/or governmental bodies undertake
