To estimate the financial requirements for achieving adequate and equitable sanitation for all by 2030 in five cities: Kisumu (Kenya), Nakuru (Kenya), Malindi (Kenya), Kumasi (Ghana), and Rangpur (Bangladesh).
Global sustainable development goals call for universal access to safely managed sanitation by 2030, the study demonstrates methods to estimate the financial requirements for meeting this commitment in urban settings of low-income countries.
The Supporting Information is available free of charge at https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.est.0c06348 and includes: Detailed descriptions of sanitation approaches; methods for calculating household OPEX; details on the scenarios considered for achieving universal sanitation; survey locations and sampling protocol; data collection tool for municipal infrastructure costs; figures depicting sanitation approaches, ten-year household costs, household demand curves, and annual per-capita financial requirements to achieve universal sanitation; tables presenting dimensions of toilet facilities, sanitation needs in study cities, municipal cost items considered, sampling information for the household survey, socio-economic characteristics of survey respondents, detailed household costs, household WTP, sensitivity analyses on required household subsidies, and detailed municipal costs
Data collected from household stakeholder interviews, focus-group discussions, and household surveys: collected detailed cost data on the sanitation infrastructure, products, and services from 76 key informants across the five cities, and surveyed a total of 2381 low-income households to estimate willingness-to-pay.
