Abstract:
O abastecimento por água potável, o esgotamento sanitário, a coleta e disposição de resíduos sólidos e a drenagem pluvial urbana são serviços públicos indispensáveis para uma cidade, pois se relacionam diretamente com a saúde coletiva, a qualidade de vida dos cidadãos e a qualidade ambiental. A partir de dados de fácil aquisição pretendeu-se conhecer a qualidade do saneamento ambiental que o espaço urbano de uma cidade apresentava para que os gestores públicos possam planejar a área urbana de acordo com as necessidades de seus cidadãos e diminuir as deficiências encontradas no saneamento ambiental. O objetivo desse artigo foi desenvolver um Indicador de Qualidade de Saneamento Básico Urbano (IQSBU) e aplicá-lo às cidades paranaenses com mais de 100.000 habitantes, de 2000 a 2008. Para isso, foi necessário: (i) coletar dados sobre saneamento ambiental; (ii) determinar parâmetros limites dos dados escolhidos; (iii) calcular os indicadores de qualidade para cada cidade; e, (iv) comparar os resultados obtidos entre as cidades. Após o término desse estudo, constatou-se a falta de informações sobre o saneamento ambiental urbano, em especial sobre resíduos sólidos e drenagem. Isso implica em dificuldades na gestão e no planejamento urbano. Com relação aos resultados, conclui-se que, no geral, as cidades apresentaram uma boa qualidade de saneamento básico, em pelo menos um ano do período. Observou-se, entretanto, que nenhuma cidade atingiu ótima qualidade dos serviços de saneamento básico (> 80,0). As cidades que não tiveram nenhum valor de IQSBU acima de 60 foram: Apucarana, Araucária e Colombo. O ano com melhores resultados de IQSBU e, consequentemente, de maior repasse das informações pelos municípios ao sistema Development of Qualit y Index in Basic Urban Sanitation and its Application in the Towns of the State of Paraná, Brazil ABSTRACT: Drinkable water supply, sewerage, the collection and disposal of solid wastes and urban rain drains are indispensible public services in towns and cities that are concerned with the health of the community, life quality and environment. Easily acquired data provided the quality of environmental sanitation that the town or city offered so that government administrators could plan the urban area according to the needs of its citizens and decrease the deficiencies in environmental sanitation. Current assay developed a Quality Index of Basic Urban Sanitation to be applied to cities with over 100,000 inhabitants in the state of Paraná, Brazil, between 2000 and 2008. (1) The collection of data on environmental sanitation, (2) the determination of limit parameters of chosen data; (3) the calculation of quality indicators for each city; (4) the comparison of results from cities were required. The study registered a dire lack of information on urban environmental sanitation, especially on solid residues and sewerage. The above implies difficulties with regard to administration and urban planning. Results show that, as a rule, the cities under analysis offered a rather good basic sanitation within at least one year. However, no city had the best quality in basic sanitation service (> 80.0). The cities with no quality rate above 60 comprised Apucarana, Araucária and Colombo. The year 2006 was the best for Quality Index information and, consequently, for the highest transmission of information by the municipalities to the system. During 2006 the highest Quality Index rate belonged to Londrina (78.3) and the lowest to Colombo (49.8). KEYWORDS: Environmental Administration; Index; Urban Planning

Abstract:
This paper deeply discusses the implementation plan of the integration of urban and rural sanitation in county towns in China. First of all, the main problems facing urban and rural sanitation in the county are analyzed, including inadequate sanitation facilities, scattered management and low efficiency of resource utilization. Then, it puts forward the necessity and importance of urban and rural sanitation integration, pointing out that it helps to improve the county's environmental health level, promote resource conservation and recycling, and promote the coordinated development of urban and rural areas. In the implementation of the program, this paper puts forward a series of concrete measures. It includes strengthening the construction of sanitation infrastructure, improving the system of garbage collection, transfer and treatment; Promoting the reform of the environmental sanitation management system to realize the unification and coordination of urban and rural sanitation management; Strengthen environmental sanitation technology innovation and personnel training, improve the quality and efficiency of environmental sanitation services; At the same time, pay attention to the combination of policy guidance and market mechanism to attract social capital to participate in the cause of environmental sanitation. Through this study, the aim is to provide a scientific implementation plan and reference for the integration of urban and rural environmental sanitation in the county, and promote the healthy development of environmental health undertakings in the county.

Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to review the global trends in urbanization with respect to availability of adequate sanitation and water supply services. Urbanization is unrelenting and rapid increase in the urban population in the less developed countries is of major global concern regarding this topic of sustainable sanitation and water. Most global urban growth is in the smaller cities and in the developing world. Half the urban developing world lacks adequate water and sanitation. Global urban access to waterborne sanitation is not affordable and thus is not a realistic option so alternative approaches are necessary. The treatment of drinking water cannot be a substitute for sanitation. In order to achieve sustainable sanitation, a change in attitude about human excreta and use of water is required. Essential features of a sustainable sanitation system are: containment, sanitisation and recycling. To improve water supply, we need to improve management practices, use full-cost pricing, introduce watershed approaches to protection and provide improved sanitation. Small urban initiatives need to go beyond the traditional sectors and new initiatives are required like on-site urban ecostations, source-separation of urine and faeces, decentralised greywater treatment and integration of sanitation into the cost of housing.

Abstract:
A large number of human diseases are related to poor access to water and sewer systems, inadequate solid waste management and deficient storm water drainage. The goal of this study was to formulate environmental sanitation indicators and classify sanitation conditions in specific sewer basins and their respective neighborhoods. The database used contains information on the following sanitation components in these areas: water supply, sewer systems, urban drainage, road pavement, building typology and public cleaning. Data was analyzed using cluster analysis. The key variable of each component was identified, and eight sewer basins and twenty-three neighborhoods were classified into the following categories: good, regular, and poor. The use of environmental sanitation indicators allows decision makers to identify critical areas and define priorities for improving environmental sanitation conditions.

Abstract:
Objectives. To estimate the population lacking at least basic water and sanitation access in the urban United States. Methods. We compared national estimates of water and sanitation access from the World Health Organization/United Nations Children’s Fund Joint Monitoring Program with estimates from the US Department of Housing and Urban Development on homelessness and the American Community Survey on household water and sanitation facilities. Results. We estimated that at least 930 000 persons in US cities lacked sustained access to at least basic sanitation and 610 000 to at least basic water access, as defined by the United Nations. Conclusions. After accounting for those experiencing homelessness and substandard housing, our estimate of people lacking at least basic water equaled current estimates (n = 610 000)—without considering water quality—and greatly exceeded estimates of sanitation access (n = 28 000). Public Health Implications. Methods to estimate water and sanitation access in the United States should include people experiencing homelessness and other low-income groups, and specific policies are needed to reduce disparities in urban sanitation. We recommend similar estimation efforts for other high-income countries currently reported as having near universal sanitation access.

Abstract:
Urbanisation in sub-Saharan Africa is characterised by a proliferation of informal settlements which all too often embody poverty; low access to basic services and lack secure tenure. The reality of sanitation infrastructure in low and middle income cities is a spectrum of sanitation systems ranging from conventional utility managed systems to basic household facilities. Population growth has outpaced urban planning and provision and, given projected urbanisation trends, a prevalence of non-piped self-build sanitation systems is the most likely scenario for urban sanitation in the developing world, at least for the immediate to mid-term. This presents different governance challenges especially as informal occupations are often on unsuitable land which exacerbates the difficulties in service provision. Sanitation, tenure and development are inextricably linked, not only with respect to these challenges of urbanisation, but also under the strategic objectives of the Millennium Development Goals (MDG). Together sanitation and tenure security are primary indicators of the MDG7, targets ten (access to improved sanitation) and eleven (improving the lives of slum dwellers). The link between sanitation and tenure is the focus of this research. Both tenure and sanitation are fragmented into their component parts to understand exactly how and where they interact. Tenure is defined in terms of formal land tenure; tenure status (to differentiate between landlord and tenant) and tenure security. Sanitation issues are investigated with respect to access, household investment and emptying behaviours. The research framework combines the concept of decision making domains to describe the urban context with a city-wide systems view of sanitation, where both formal and informal institutional arrangements are considered. This research concludes on five main points: firstly, tenure security is a necessary precondition for household investment but, given that urban sanitation development and provision happen largely under the radar of formal city planning and urban management, it is de facto rather than de jure tenure rights that provide the security for household investment in sanitation. The second finding is that few urban sanitation strategies cater for those who are unwilling or unable to invest. This is a fundamental oversight in current urban sanitation strategies of the population segments who cannot invest, thus failing to provide a sanitation strategy for all. This is of growing concern given the type of urbanisation being witnessed in developing countries characterised by increasing concentrations low income populations and tenants. The third finding is that those who are unwilling to invest may be willing to pay (and do) for sanitation services. This places a greater emphasis on downstream and operational sanitation activities (i.e. tenure neutral options). The fourth finding is that there are multiple service providers and majority of urban sanitation transactions take place outside the formal service provision. Giving meaning to these informal transactions is likely to offer insight into improved governance for urban sanitation. The final point is that there is a need to widen the scope of formal sanitation service provision to include tenure neutral sanitation options to reach the needs of tenants and those living with poor tenure security. xiii Practically, this means that by taking a city-wide approach supported by the sanitation cityscape tool which is presented in the thesis one can identify which element(s) of the sanitation system are most appropriate to target given the tenure situation. Without this consideration, urban sanitation interventions are likely to be targeted inappropriately. These conclusions are based upon primary data collected from a household survey (n=363) and a series of key informant interviews collected during 2008 in Greater Dakar, Senegal.

Abstract:
In this thesis, I explore the collective excrement apparatus of Kampala, or the “shitscape”. I consider the diverse ways that the city’s inhabitants utilise different materials to manage their daily defecation, from flush toilets and latrines to plastic bags, septic tanks, and wastewater channels. In doing so, I unravel the historical and contemporary construction of toileting as a critical component of the modern city in the global south, and the everyday role of excrement in the inclusion and exclusion of Kampala’s inhabitants. The shitscape therefore invites a discussion of how the city’s sanitation infrastructures are thought about and implemented in a way that both reflects and reinforces the socio-economic disparities of its residents. The thesis begins with an historical analysis of how the city was shaped by colonialism and how this affects the contemporary shitscape in terms of ideas about urbanity, modernity, and hygiene, and then analyses how the material and symbolic groundwork of the colonial period is extended into the planning and living of today’s city. Tracing the city’s main wastewater channel through affluent areas and informal settlements of central Kampala, I use ethnographic and qualitative methods to understand the everyday toileting materialities and performances, and its role in the ways in which the city is read, perceived, and lived by its inhabitants. The study’s primary theoretical contribution is to contribute to Lefebvre’s theories about the production of urban space by bringing it into conversation with postcolonial and feminist literatures that knit together bodily function and material infrastructure. This everyday look at the how the city’s shitscape operates ultimately offers ways to challenge prevailing notions of urbanity, and prompts thinking about alternative possibilities for how city life is conceptualised.

Abstract:
From the analysis of the Dongsheng project which applied ecological sanitation in multi-storey buildings in China, we found that technical deficiencies, managerial problems and incorrect usage of the urine-diverting toilets resulted in the poor performance of the Dongsheng ecological sanitation system. Lack of standards or guidelines, and lack of policies or regulations are significant challenges in implementing the ecological sanitation system. Residents in the Dongsheng eco-town have positive attitudes toward reusing human faeces and urine in agriculture since China has a long tradition of this. However, the residents did not know very well about the value of urine, and the local farmers did not want urine. Women in China are more concerned with sanitation from a health aspect than men. Higher education level is connected to more positive attitudes towards human faeces and urine and their reuse. However, there is no link between income status and the attitudes of users. The supply chain for ecological sanitation systems is weak in urban China and needs to be improved. Apart from the demand side and supply side of ecological sanitation, enabling ecological sanitationto go to scale in an urban context depends on physical, environmental, technical and policy factors.

According to the WHO/UNICEF Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP), 14% of the population in Ghana use improved sanitation facilities and 59% use shared facilities. The objective of this thesis is to offer a situational analysis of public sanitation in Ghana by addressing both access to sanitation and bio-digestion on-site waste treatment for one non-profit organization, Pure Home Water, to improve access to sanitation in the Northern Sector of Ghana. Based on the neighborhood, customary, and political context of Ghana, I recommend the construction of new public sanitation facilities, the conversion of existing household toilets to the biodigester systems, and making bio-digester systems a standard technical model while creating local ownership of the technology. In addition, I recommend evaluating the status quo to address the needs of vulnerable groups, addressing hygiene needs as standard, and appealing to the local government's business sense.

Abstract:
To-date, sanitation has mainly been approached from a public and environmental health perspective and this implies that excreta and other organic waste streams are seen not only as a hazard to quickly get rid of but also as a very costly menace to manage. However, looking at sanitation management from a resource recovery perspective provides an avenue for solutions with multiple co-benefits. Revenues from sanitation end-use products can act as an incentive for improving sanitation infrastructure while also covering part or all of the investment and operation costs for the same. Until now, estimating the potential for resource recovery from sanitation systems and technologies has largely been done on a case by case basis according to project or geography with no standardized universal tools or methodologies being used across the world. This study is aimed at developing a generic model for the rapid estimation of the quantities of various resources that can be recovered from sanitary waste streams in urban areas. Key waste streams from sanitation systems in low and middle income countries were identified and their major characterization parameters identified. The mathematical relationships between key waste stream characterization parameters and the potential amounts of resource products derived from treatment were determined and then used to develop the model in MS Excel. The model was then tested with waste stream flow rates and characterization data (for faecal sludge, sewage sludge and organic municipal solid waste) from the city of Kampala with two scenarios; the current collection amounts (390 m3 of faecal sludge, 66 tonnes of sewage sludge and 700 tonnes of organic solid waste) and the potential amounts with increased collection efficiency and coverage (900 m3 of faecal sludge, 282 tonnes of sewage sludge and 2199 tonnes of organic solid waste). The results were shared with Kampala city authorities to obtain feedback. The results showed that there is significant potential in utilizing the daily amounts of the three waste streams collected in Kampala. With increased collection coverage and efficiency, they could altogether yield; up to 361,200 Nm3 of biogas per day which could meet the daily energy needs of 824,000 people that are currently met by firewood. Alternatively, the three sources could produce, 752 tonnes of solid combustion fuel per day which could meet the daily energy needs of 1,108,700 people that are currently met by firewood. As a third alternative, the three sources could produce 198 tonnes of Black Soldier Fly prepupae per day which could substitute for 134 tonnes of dry fish per day currently used as animal feed ingredient and up to 909 tonnes of compost fertilizer per day which is enough to substitute two tonnes of urea that is currently used by farmers. The model thus proved to be a simple way to provide decision support by making rapid estimations of the potential for resource recovery in urban areas, without the burden of having to do full scale feasibility studies. It is expected that this model could be a useful complement to the excreta flow diagrams (SFDs) developed within the Sustainable Sanitation Alliance (SuSanA) and hence give a holistic picture of the potential of a closed loop approach to excreta and waste management in cities.

A central challenge facing municipalities in developing countries is the successful maintenance of sanitation services for their urban poor. Not only are municipalities struggling to cope with increased sanitation coverage to their urban poor, but the challenge of successful sanitation delivery is further compounded by the poor maintenance of sanitation systems, thus rendering the existing infrastructure unusable. This thesis focuses on septic tank maintenance in tenements' in small municipalities in Erode district, India. The findings of this thesis are that the desired outcome of good sanitation maintenance in the Erode tenements is due to variables that are often overlooked in the maintenance literature and also due to unexpected processes that defy conventional wisdom on effective service delivery for the urban poor. Three variables that contributed to good sanitation maintenance in the Erode tenements are: 1) design: the location of the septic tank system played an important role in maintenance, 2) bundling of services: linking septic tank maintenance to use of public taps helped tenement residents monitor and enforce septic tank maintenance, and 3) decentralization: the changing relationship between the tenement residents and the municipality, through the process of decentralization, from a patron-client one to one akin a commercial transaction, partially explains the good performance in septic tank maintenance. The findings of this thesis shed light on the variables that do matter for good sanitation maintenance and show how incentives and institutional arrangements can be structured differently to achieve the desired outcome of well-maintained, long-lived sanitation systems.

Abstract:
O trabalho analisa a atuação da Secretaria de Agricultura, Comércio e Obras Públicas do governo estadual paulista no período compreendido entre 1892, quando foi criada e 1926 quando foi desmembrada em duas: a Secretaria de Agricultura, Indústria e Comércio e Secretaria de Viação e Obras Públicas. Durante este período, a Secretaria foi responsável pelas principais políticas de infra-estruturação territorial e urbana do estado de São Paulo, compreendendo a indústria agrícola, a viação pública, a organização das terras públicas e colonização, a imigração e trabalho, as obras públicas em geral e de saneamento. A formação de uma estrutura administrativa centralizada, hierarquizada e articulada, no horizonte do projeto federalista da Primeira República, além da introdução de bases técnico-científicas na condução dos trabalhos desta infra-estruturação, indicam a presença de um planejamento territorial e urbano moderno no âmbito estadual, estabelecido como projeto de poder. Por outro lado, a abordagem dos planos, projetos e propostas de saneamento, compreendidos pela bibliografia como elementos chave das origens da urbanística moderna no Brasil, ganha contornos específicos ao considerar as estratégias territoriais do governo paulista, tanto para estimular as atividades agrícolas do campo, como para permitir a reprodução do capital nas áreas urbanas. Mirando o desenvolvimento econômico do estado, a Secretaria de Agricultura definiu as prioridades em suas ações políticas o que explicita o tratamento diferenciado que dirigiu às localidades do estado no campo do saneamento. Enquanto a Capital e Santos foram priorizadas nas obras de redes de drenagem, água e esgoto, apenas um pouco mais da metade das outras localidades tinha rede de esgoto instalada em 1926. A diversificação na aplicação do capital visualizada na expressiva atividade urbanizadora na cidade de São Paulo orientou a prática urbanística do período, caracterizada pelo espraiamento e fragmentação, sob respaldo da Secretaria que não mediu esforços para ampliar as redes de água e esgoto para acompanhar o acelerado crescimento urbano.
The study analyses the territorial and urban policies of São Paulo State Government with the focus on Secretary of State of Agriculture, Commerce and Public Works between 1892, when it was created, and 1926, when it was divided in two new Secretaries of State: Agriculture, Industry and Commerce and Transportation and Public Works. During this period, this Secretary developed several public policies, mainly toward agricultural industry, public transportation, public lands and settlement, immigration and labor, public works and sanitation. The organization of a centralized, hierarchical political body, articulated to the federal project carried by the First Republic as well as the introduction of scientific knowledge into consideration of the territorial and urban questions, indicate the presence of a Modern Regional and Urban Planning, before the presence of professional Urban Planners. On the other hand, the study of plans, projects, and proposals of sanitation networks all considered as the roots by the of Modern Urbanism in Brazil by the bibliography - allows us to understand territorial strategies of São Paulo Government, either to stimulate agricultural activities or to promote capital reproduction in the cities. In order to develop economy, the Secretary of State of Agriculture defined the priorities in its actions and treated differently each one of the localities in the field of sanitation. While São Paulo Capital and Santos soon had priority to receive drainage, water supply and sewage networks, a little more than the half of the other municipalities only had sewage installed in 1926. The significant urbanization activity in the city of São Paulo, characterized by overflowing and sprawling, guided the urbanistic practice in the period. The Secretary drove its efforts in extending the networks of sewage and water supply in order to follow this accelerated urban growth.

The aim of the study was to develop a clear understanding of the relationship between land tenure, tenancy and water and sanitation services development planning and delivery in the context of rapid urbanisation in post-apartheid South Africa. The study revolved around mismatches which exist due the largely binary polarisation of urban land tenure in the form of the 'formal' and 'informal' view by municipalities which rely on technocratic approaches on one hand, and fragmented, sectorial interventions, to basic services delivery on the other. In addressing the problem for the research, emphasis was on lower-income working class neighbourhoods in the Western Cape Province, City of Cape Town in particular. Using a mixed methods approach where both quantitative and qualitative methods were used, data was collected from the following study sites: Nkanini (Khayelitsha), Mshini Wam (Joe Slovo Park, Milnerton), Langa (Old Hostels) and Kensington. These study sites were carefully selected for contrast and comparison, as the initial research in the area has revealed various prior tenure arrangements.

Abstract:
Urbanization poses unique challenges to wastewater management due to the high density of populations and the significant volumes of waste generated. Traditional wastewater treatment methods are often unable to keep pace with the demands of growing urban populations and the need for sustainable environmental practices. This research paper explores innovative smart wastewater treatment solutions aimed at revolutionizing urban sanitation. It examines the integration of advanced technologies such as Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), and biotechnological innovations into wastewater management systems. The paper discusses how these technologies not only enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of treatment processes but also contribute to resource recovery, including energy production and nutrient recycling. A comparative analysis of several case studies from cities that have successfully implemented smart wastewater treatment systems is presented, highlighting improvements in operational efficiency, reduction in environmental impact, and economic benefits. The study also addresses challenges such as technological integration, upscaling, regulatory frameworks, and public acceptance. The findings indicate that smart wastewater treatment solutions offer a promising pathway to sustainable urban development by improving sanitation services, reducing pollution, and conserving resources.

Abstract:
The 21st century brings before us the great challenge of the universality of water and sanitation services in an increasingly urban world. The gap between the level of coverage of these services and the urbanized area is difficult to address given the disarticulation existing between the dynamics of infrastructure networks and accelerated urban settlement patterns. In Latin America, the so-called villas, shantytowns, slums or favelas shape archipelagos of informality in access to drinking water and sanitation services, within a formal city that makes their exclusion invisible and tries out alternative mechanisms or intermediate solution policies in territories of inequity and urban inequality. In this paper we will analyze the prevailing public policies in the Metropolitan Area of Buenos Aires, and the impact they have had on access to water and sanitation services in its poor neighborhoods. Key words: poor neighborhoods, access to water and sanitation, Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area, public policies. El siglo XXI nos plantea el gran desafío de la universalidad de los servicios de agua y saneamiento en un mundo cada vez más urbano. La brecha entre el nivel de cobertura de estos servicios y área urbanizada, resulta difícil de abordar ante la desarticulación entre dinámicas propias de las redes de infraestructura y acelerados patrones de asentamiento urbano. En Latinoamérica, las denominadas villas, asentamientos, barriadas o favelas; conforman archipiélagos de informalidad en el acceso a los servicios de agua potable y saneamiento, dentro de una ciudad formal que invisibiliza su exclusión, ensaya mecanismos alternativos o políticas de solución intermedias en territorios de inequidad y desigualdad urbana. En este trabajo analizaremos las políticas públicas imperantes en el Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires, y el impacto que han tenido sobre el acceso a los servicios de agua y saneamiento en sus barrios populares. Palabras clave: barrios populares, acceso al agua y saneamiento, Área Metropolitana de Buenos Aires, políticas públicas

Abstract:
Urbanization is closely linked to the history of humanity, from nomadic peoples to the present day. Water has always played a crucial role in the founding and development of cities, influencing not only survival and agriculture, but also sanitation. The Roman Empire was a milestone in the development of urban sanitation, with the implementation of sewage systems and public bathrooms. However, despite advances throughout history, many areas still face challenges in accessing basic sanitation, including Brazil, where poor infrastructure is a problem, especially in the North and Northeast regions. Brazilian legislation has established guidelines for the management of urban rainwater, but the misuse of drainage systems continues to be a problem, resulting in pollution and risks to public health.

Full text
Abstract:
India, a country now known as one of the world’s fastest-growing economy, continues to be inhabited by 40 per cent of the global population of open defecators. Nearly 536 million people in India defecate in the open every day. To rectify this multifaceted issue, Government of India launched the Clean India Mission, famously known as the Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan, in 2014. Sanitation became a national political priority for the first time in India. The Mission renewed a hope to address a myriad of issues associated with open defecation. But this hope has only been fulfilled partially in the past five years. The paper highlights the issue of open defecation with a case of the National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCTD), finding answers to one question: what is the role of an urban planner in liberating Indian cities, especially Delhi, from sanitation deprivation and open defecation. National Capital Territory (NCT) of Delhi is identified as the case area for the project for two prime reasons: one, the extent of sanitation deprivation in the city; and second, the administrative capital of India often forms a precedent for the rest of the nation. The paper is structured into three broad sections: first, the extent of sanitation deprivation in urban India and analysis of policies- planning and non-planning, formulated in response to the issue, is highlighted. Second, the extent of the issue is investigated for the case of Delhi in context of policy frameworks; third, urban narratives of sanitation deprivation captured across select six clusters of jhuggi jhompri1 in the National Capital Territory are highlighted to exhibit differences in access and use of sanitation facilities, in context of the pan-India Clean India Mission. The paper concludes at a note of hope- envisioning a city and a country where no one is deprived of their basic human right to improved sanitation, or has to defecate in the open, and also details out implementable strategies and policies for Delhi and urban India.

Abstract:
Abstract Urbanization has a close relationship with basic sanitation. Cities were increasing, however, sanitation infrastructure did not follow this process. In addition, public health conditions are directly related to the existence and efficiency of basic sanitation services, so that it is fundamental for environmental health, since it is composed of sewage services, drinking water supply, waste management solids and urban drainage. Such services mitigate the anthropic impacts generated in the context of hydrographic basins.

Abstract:
Abstract Rapid worldwide urbanization has created peri-urban environments that often lack services and infrastructure for water and sanitation. Globally, around 4.5 billion people do not have access to safely managed sanitation, as is often the case in such environments. Efforts to develop appropriate sanitation alternatives in these contexts recognize the value of understanding users’ preferences and interaction with their sanitation systems, however, the traditional tools for assessing technology usage and adoption are based on physical observation, which presents limitations. In this work, we developed a toilet sensor to identify usage patterns of pour-flush toilets by quantifying flushing and defecation events. The device has a methane gas sensor, IR distance sensor and a motion sensor connected to a microcontroller. Its small footprint allows for unobtrusive installation inside a toilet bowl and operates battery-powered for about 5 days depending on usage patterns. To evaluate the sensor performance, units were installed for a field trial in nine participants’ households in a Mexican peri-urban community and an algorithm for automated data analysis was developed. Surveys were also conducted to benchmark the sensor performance and determine the potential value of the approach. Results showed that on average people underreported their daily toilet usage by two events compared to the measurements and they flushed only 75% of the time after defecation. By monitoring the usage of the current pour-flush toilets lacking piped water and sewerage and complementing the data with users’ feedback, we can gain an understanding of the existing limitations so more suitable sanitation alternatives can be proposed.

Abstract:
In the last decade, Belize has seen major improvements in access to water, but it is behind in achieving universal access to improved sanitation facilities. Belize has also made progress in terms of the disposal of solid waste in the central and western regions, including in the largest urban area, Belize City. Despite these developments, there is a need to further improve the performance of these sectors, especially in terms of wastewater collection and treatment in urban areas throughout the country and solid waste collection and final disposal in the northern (Corozal and Orange Walk districts) and southern (Stann Creek and Toledo districts) regions of the country. This Technical Note was prepared to support the policy dialogue between the Inter-American Development Bank and the Government of Belize. It provides an analysis of the current situation of the water and sanitation and solid waste sectors in Belize, and makes recommendations on immediate actions to assist in further improving coverage and the quality of the services provided.

Abstract:
The Government of Tamil Nadu (GoTN) has prioritised the full sanitation chain, including the strengthening of septage management as an economical and sustainable complement to networkbased sewerage systems. The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) is supporting the GoTN to achieve the Sanitation Mission of Tamil Nadu through the Tamil Nadu Urban Sanitation Support Programme (TNUSSP). TNUSSP Phase I (2015-2018) was designed to support GoTN and selected cities in making improvements along the entire urban sanitation chain. In the second phase (2018– 2020), TNUSSP seeks to go one step further and integrate a gender and social inclusion (GSI) perspective within its interventions at two sites – the city of Tiruchirappalli (Trichy), and the two town panchayats (TPs) of Periyanaicken-Palayam (PNP) and Narasimhanaicken-Palayam (NNP) in Coimbatore district – along the urban sanitation cycle and in its support provided at the State level.
