Is cleaning only the responsibility of the karamcharis? Do citizens have no role in this? We have to change this mindset.

The Sustainable Development Goals have been signed. Governments from all over the world have committed themselves to 17 ambitious goals that are designed to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all. A question that requires an answer: how are we going to finance this? With our Financing Sanitation Paper Series we hope to share our expertise on how we can finance Sustainable Development Goal 6: Ensure Access to Water and Sanitation for all. To be able to finance sanitation sustainably, we need to work together, build innovative partnerships and share knowledge. We have developed the Financing Sanitation Paper Series for this specific reason, to share our experiences on financing sanitation and to start an exciting discussion on this very important topic. I therefore invite you to go through the papers and looking forward to see your reactions Read More

To get more insight in an important element in household sanitation, its actual cost, we (Valentin and Vijay) have written this paper. The paper gives bills of quantities (different sanitation system). For local context, the cheap motorcycle index is introduced.Without our contributors Henock Belete Afaw, G. Anand, Abhijit Banerji, Jacqueline Barendse, Pamela Bundi, John Harrison, Kajetan Hetzer, George Kimathi, Stan Maessen, Ruth Miskelly, Martin Muchangi, Ger Pannekoek, Alix Reichenecker, John Sauer Theo Brouwers, this paper would not have seen the light of day Read More

To get more insight in an important element in household sanitation, its actual cost, we (Valentin and Vijay) have written this paper. The paper gives bills of quantities (different sanitation system). For local context, the cheap motorcycle index is introduced.

Without our contributors Henock Belete Afaw, G. Anand, Abhijit Banerji, Jacqueline Barendse, Pamela Bundi, John Harrison, Kajetan Hetzer, George Kimathi, Stan Maessen, Ruth Miskelly, Martin Muchangi, Ger Pannekoek, Alix Reichenecker, John Sauer the Bill of Quantities. In the Bill of Quantities, materials, parts, and labour are all itemized. One need to fill in costs per item and add it all up to get a complete overview of the cost of a system. Of course, this presupposes that items all use the same standards. Therefore, we converted all local used units into SI units. Furthermore, we converted all local prices into one widely currency, the Euro (€).

Even after establishing the cost of a sanitation system, what does it mean in practice? If a sanitation system costs € 180 in India and € 400 in Kenya (fictive prices), what does this mean? Is the supplier in Kenya making massive profits or are other forces at work?

Next, we outline a price purchase parity mechanism, in other words we compare cost with a globally available asset. The chosen asset is a (cheap) motorcycle. Just like for sanitation all economic (in)efficiencies are at work from the place of manufacturing, transport duties, mark-ups, profits etc. Our proposition is now as follows: how many sanitation systems (type X, Y, or Z), can one purchase for one low cost motorcycle? Based on data from nine countries, we have formulated it as a hypothesis, if your sanitation system is half or less of the cost of a low-cost motorcycle, the sanitation system is well priced. We welcome your suggestions and ideas.
