Abstract:
Introduction: Proper sanitation promotes health, improves the quality of the environment and thus, the quality of life in a community. Sanitation refers to the safe collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of human wastes. It is a fundamental health service without which there cannot be any improvement in the state of community health. It is both public and private element, and the individuals hygiene can affect the whole community. Improving the sanitation within a community leads to an improvement in health. Thus, sanitation is an integral component of environmental protection, whi

Abstract:
The basic concept of collecting domestic liquid waste in water-borne sewer systems goes back more than 100 years and became in the last century the conventional approach to sanitation in urban areas. Over the years, these sewage disposal systems had to be successively upgraded by additional sewage treatment plants increasing investment, operating and maintenance costs. Although these conventional sanitation systems could improve significantly the public health situation in those countries who could afford to install and operate them, it is highly questionable, if they are economically and ecol

Solid Waste management is one of the least recognized public policy issues in Ghana. Quite apart from the obvious physical unattractiveness of the business, waste management often competes with more pressing economic and social issues such as fiscal and trade matters, unemployment and poverty, education and health. Even within the domain of environmental sustainability, the management of waste has had to play second fiddle to more apparently manifest challenges such as land and coastal degradation, biodiversity loss, and climate change.

AbstractThe function of sanitation is to control the fate of human waste. A toilet is only the entrance to sanitation, and human waste as materials need to be appropriately handled throughout a sanitation service chain to control the impact of human waste on the environment. While the toilet has a private aspect, post-toilet sanitation has a public aspect. It is unclear how individuals and society should share the impact of post-toilet sanitation.

This change saved time, especially for women and girls, who traditionally spend hours collecting firewood and boiling water.

Abstract:
The city of Montero, through the cooperative utility COSMOL, has successfully implemented on-site sanitation services for part of its population, in parallel to sewer-based services. However, additional solutions, capacity development and strengthening of governance systems are needed to allow for increased sustainability, for both the sewered and non-sewered sanitation services in the city. Technical improvements are still needed in wastewater and excreta management and treatment, to reduce health and environmental impacts. However, optimizing the existing sanitation systems could increase en

Abstract:
The Latin America and Caribbean (LAC) region has a long history of coping with natural hazards such as hurricanes, floods, and coastal storm surges. However, climate change is expected to exacerbate the threat of natural hazards and pose new ones. As a result of climate change, average temperatures and sea levels are known to be rising, precipitation patterns might change, and hurricanes could intensify. Many of these changes are already occurring, and are projected to become more severe in the future. The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) supports a wide-range of projects in the LAC regio

Abstract:
Water tariffs are used as a tool to balance objectives such as efficiency, accessibility, cost recovery, and environmental preservation. These competing objectives imply that water tariff structures must be adapted to local contexts and priorities to be effective, a reality that is especially relevant for Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) due to its great geographical and temporal variability in water availability and demand. There are multiple factors that influence tariff structures in the water sector, but they can be categorized into four main groups: (1) environmental factors, (2) urb

Abstract:
The dual nature of water as a finite resource and as a basic human right creates a tension that presents important implications for water pricing. Water tariffs are a key tool used by policymakers to create incentive structures that promote efficient use; at the same time, they can create barriers to access and ignore waters socio-cultural value if not calibrated properly. This conflict between pricing as to reduce over-consumption and to guarantee accessibility exposes the difficulty of optimizing residential water pricing, and the importance of progressive tariff structures in building more

Abstract:
The report presents an analysis of legal frameworks and project implementations across eight Latin American countries: Bolivia, Colombia, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Honduras, Panama, Paraguay and Peru. It serves as a reference to the legal frameworks and good practices in water resources management in Latin America, emphasizing a holistic and sustainable approach to ensure both human and environmental well-being. It provides insights into good governance practices in Latin American countries, focusing on the procedural principles of the Human Rights-Based Approach as it applies to the Human Righ

Abstract:
Development projects have a wider set of impacts than just direct project outputs. A hydropower dam, for example, produces electricity but also disrupts river flows and may affect biodiversity and the general aquatic environment. A new port development may affect coastal resources such as mangroves and coral reefs. Coal-fired power plants affect both the local and the global environments through emissions of ash and dust (affecting mostly the local environment) as well as greenhouse gases (affecting the global environment). Sewage and sanitation projects provide new services to consumers but a

Abstract:
Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) have made impressive economic, social, and environmental progress, however significant disparities remain. While advancements have been made in the water and sanitation sector, lower-income households still face challenges such as limited access, poor service quality, and a disproportionately high share of their income spent on water. These issues may further exacerbate inequalities in the region. So, this paper aims to examine the role of water expenditures in contributing to inequality in LAC countries. Understanding this relationship is crucial for deve
