Abstract:
The present study aims to estimate the costs and benefits of sanitation interventions to attain
universal sanitation coverage in Haiti’s urban areas.
The intervention using the container based sanitation service yields the higher benefit cost ratio (BCR), providing benefits that are approximately equal to the costs, though economies of scale in increased coverage would drive benefits above costs. The CBS intervention is also the option that may promote intervention compliance and ecological benefits that are not included in this analysis due to the lack of specific quantitative data.
