Financing sanitation - looking for new approaches
Comparing the economic situations of nineteenth century Britain and a typical developing country city today, it is clear that there cannot be the levels of public subsidy required to build a networked sewerage system as there was in the Victorian era. However, public funding can play a vital role in stimulating demand for sanitation, which then leverages investment from households and elsewhere.Evans, Barbara, Hutton, Guy and Haller, Laurence (2004) Closing the Sanitation Gap - the case for better public funding of sanitation and hygiene OECD Round Table on Sustainable Development and Millennium Project; Task Force on Water and Sanitation.
