Dataset
To track how households in informal settlements in Kenya, South Africa, and Peru access, use, and experience off-grid sanitation services, especially container-based sanitation, over time.
The study aimed to understand how sanitation access relates to household well-being, livelihoods, and resilience during shocks and service disruptions.
The data includes sanitation access and usage (including container-based sanitation), mental well-being, income and employment, infrastructure service use, exposure to shocks, and other socio-economic factors, along with the survey instruments, ODK code, and supporting documentation such as metadata, training materials, and consent forms.
High-frequency phone surveys were conducted using ODK software over a year-long period. Weekly smartphone surveys were conducted in more than 300 households within informal settlements across the three countries throughout the project duration
