Boosting the On-Site Sanitation Market in Côte d’Ivoire

Description

Located in West Africa, Côte d’Ivoire has a population of over twenty-four million, of which it is estimated that about thirteen million people have universal access to basic sanitation. Immense challenges remain to increase access, due to a combination of low-quality sanitation products, limited technical capacity, and coordination challenges between different actors involved in the local regulation and delivery of sanitation products and services. With its partner municipalities, the USAID-funded Municipal Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (MuniWASH), an Activity implemented in partnership with the African Water Association (AfWA), has developed a combined approach to create the conditions to promote a strong and sustainable market for sanitation products and services in Côte d’Ivoire.
