Strengthening Ethiopia's Urban Health Program: Situational Analysis of Urban Sanitation and Waste Management

JSI’s Strengthening Ethiopia’s Urban Health Program (SEUHP) engaged the Addis Continental Institute of Public Health to conduct a study, Situational Analysis of Urban Sanitation and Waste Management: The Structural, Socio-Economic, Cultural and Political/Institutional Dimensions.

The purpose of this analysis was to review and analyze national, regional, and city/town level policies and strategies on sanitation and waste management; assess availability and enforcement of regulations, institutional capacities, and existing/potential financing mechanisms for waste management; and describe the current sanitation and waste management-related knowledge, perspectives, and practices among urban communities.
