Is it possible to reach low-income urban dwellers with good-quality sanitation? Env & Urbanization, Apr 2015.

Before public or shared toilets are dismissed as appropriate solutions, is it not worth asking their users what their needs are, what is deficient, what should be done to address this, by whom and with what funding? Where there isn’t universal provision for high-quality sanitation, it is only by engagement with those needing solutions in each location that effective, appropriate solutions will be developed.
