'water friendly latrines' (pour flush latrines designed to use less water than normal)

Has anyone experience of 'water friendly latrines' (pour flush latrines designed to use less water than normal)? We're trying to gather some lessons learned on implementing pour flush latrines in areas that suffer from drought within a cultural context where latrine users have a preference for using water. Using the lessons learned, we would like to pilot some potential solutions. There is very limited user experience of composting or dry latrines in the target areas which is why these would not be suitable for the context.
