The report is divided into four chapters. The first chapter provides an overview of the current level and quality of access to urban sanitation in the region. The second chapter examines the causes leading to the current state of urban sanitation, using four thematic areas: people, technology, institutions and finance. The third chapter identifies those factors that need to be in place to trigger a different way of doing business in the sector and that may ultimately lead to transformational changes. The final chapter proposes recommendations on how countries can upgrade and scale up urban sanitation services.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO SAFE WATERACCESS TO SANITATIONACCESS TO WATERACCESS TO WATER SUPPLYAERATIONBACTERIABILL COLLECTIONBILLINGBLOCK TARIFFSBODCATCHMENTCATCHMENT AREACENTRAL GOVERNMENTCLEAN WATERCLEAN-UPCLIMATE CHANGECOLLECTION SYSTEMCOLLECTION SYSTEMSCOMBINED SEWER SYSTEMSCOMBINED SEWERAGECOMBINED SEWERSCOMMERCIALIZATIONCOMMUNAL TOILETSCONNECTIONCONNECTION RATECONSTRUCTIONCONSUMER REPRESENTATIONCOST RECOVERYCUBIC METERDEMAND FOR SANITATIONDESLUDGINGDISPOSAL OF WASTEWATERDITCHESDOMESTIC WASTEWATERDRAINDRAINAGEDRAINAGE SYSTEMSDRAINSDRINKING WATEREFFECTIVE SANITATIONEFFECTIVE WATEREFFICIENT WATER USEEFFLUENTSELECTRICITYENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCESENVIRONMENTAL DEGRADATIONENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTSENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONEXCRETAFEFECAL COLIFORMFECESFINANCIAL VIABILITYFLUSH TOILETSFUTURE WATER NEEDSGARBAGEGASGASESGROUNDWATERGROUNDWATER CONTAMINATIONHOUSE CONNECTIONHOUSE CONNECTIONSHOUSEHOLD CONNECTIONHOUSEHOLD CONNECTIONSHOUSEHOLD SANITATIONHOUSEHOLD WASTEHUMAN EXCRETAHUMAN WASTEHYGIENEINADEQUATE SANITATIONINADEQUATE WATERINFILTRATIONINVESTMENT COSTINVESTMENT DECISIONSINVESTMENT PROPOSALSINVESTMENTS IN SANITATIONIRRIGATIONLANDFILLSLARGE CITIESLEAKSLEAST COSTLITERS PER CAPITA PER DAYLOCAL PRIVATE OPERATORSLOCAL WATERLOCAL WATER UTILITIESMETROPOLITAN WATERWORKSMONITORING PROGRAMNUMBER OF HOUSEHOLD CONNECTIONSNUMBER OF SEWER CONNECTIONSNUTRIENTSOPEN SEWERORGANIC LOADORGANIC MATTEROXYGENOXYGEN DEMANDPERFORMANCE BENCHMARKSPIPED WATERPIPESPIT LATRINESPOLLUTIONPOOR WATER QUALITYPOPULATION DENSITIESPOPULATION DENSITYPOPULATION GROWTHPOPULATION GROWTH RATEPROVISION OF WATERPUBLIC FACILITIESPUBLIC HEALTHPUBLIC SEWER SYSTEMPUBLIC UTILITIESPUBLIC WORKSQUALITY OF DRINKING WATERRAINWATERRECEIVING WATERSRECYCLED WATERREGULATORY ENVIRONMENTREGULATORY FRAMEWORKRESERVOIRSREUSE OF WATERRIVERSRUNOFFSAFE DISPOSALSAFE WATERSANITARY ENGINEERSSANITATION ACCESSSANITATION COVERAGESANITATION DEVELOPMENTSANITATION FACILITIESSANITATION INFRASTRUCTURESANITATION INVESTMENTSSANITATION MANAGEMENTSANITATION OPERATIONSSANITATION POLICIESSANITATION PRACTICESSANITATION PROBLEMSSANITATION PROGRAMSANITATION PROGRAMSSANITATION SECTORSANITATION SERVICESANITATION SERVICESSANITATION SOLUTIONSSANITATION STRATEGYSATELLITE TOWNSSEPARATE SEWERAGESEPTIC TANKSEPTIC TANK CLEANINGSEPTIC TANK DESIGNSEPTIC TANK EMPTYINGSEPTIC TANKSSERVICE DELIVERYSERVICE PROVIDERSERVICE PROVIDERSSERVICE PROVISIONSEWAGESEWAGE NETWORKSEWAGE SLUDGESEWAGE SYSTEMSSEWER NETWORKSSEWER PIPESSEWER SYSTEMSSEWERAGE CONNECTIONSSEWERAGE NETWORKSEWERAGE NETWORKSSEWERAGE SYSTEMSEWERAGE SYSTEMSSEWERSSLUDGESOLID WASTESTORM WATERSUSTAINABLE SANITATIONSUSTAINABLE SERVICESTOILETTOILET FACILITIESTOILET SYSTEMTREATED WASTEWATERTREATING WASTEWATERURBAN AREAURBAN AREASURBAN CENTERSURBAN HOUSEHOLDSURBAN SANITATIONURBAN SANITATION IMPROVEMENTSURBAN SEWERAGEURBAN WASTEWATERURBAN WATERURBAN WATER SERVICESUSERSVOLUME OF WATERWASTEWASTE WATERWASTE WATER TREATMENTWASTESWASTEWATERWASTEWATER COLLECTIONWASTEWATER DISPOSALWASTEWATER MANAGEMENTWASTEWATER SYSTEMSWASTEWATER TREATMENTWASTEWATER TREATMENT FACILITIESWASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANTSWASTEWATER TREATMENT SYSTEMSWASTEWATER TREATMENT TECHNOLOGYWASTEWATER UTILITIESWATER BODIESWATER COMPANYWATER CONSUMPTIONWATER QUALITYWATER RESOURCESWATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENTWATER REUSEWATER SECTORWATER SERVICEWATER SHORTAGESWATER SUPPLIESWATER SUPPLYWATER TREATMENT PLANTWATER UTILITIES10.1596/17616
