Adaptation strategies by smallholder farmers to climate change and variability
In semi-arid regions, the biggest threat to agriculture is climate change. This is because agricultural activities in these regions rely heavily on rainfall thus making the communities there particularly vulnerable. Sustainable adaptation techniques are therefore one way to survive in these circumstances. The Multinomial Logit Model (MNL) is thus utilised in ascertaining the dynamics of the adaptation techniques that are being applied by farmers …

Shared but Clean Household Toilets
Shared sanitation facilities are not considered as basic sanitation owing to cleanliness and accessibility concerns. However, there is mounting evidence that some shared household toilets have a comparable level of service as private toilets. This study examined the factors that contribute to the quality of shared household toilets in low-income urban communities in Ghana and Kenya. The study design comprised household surveys and field inspectio…
Indicators for Sanitation Quality in Low-Income Urban Settlements
In recent years, shared facilities have contributed substantially to increased access to sanitation in urban areas. While shared sanitation is often the only viable option in densely-populated, low-income urban areas, it is currently considered a “limited" solution by the international community. In this paper, we analyze the conditions under which shared sanitation could be considered of adequate quality and propose a set of indicators associate…
Understanding the Barriers and Opportunities for Effective Management of Shared Sanitation in Low-Income Settlements—The Case of Kumasi, Ghana
Improved sanitation for all is a daunting task for low-income countries, and shared toilets often provide an alternative to private household sanitation for most urban residents. This study sought to provide better understanding of the existing barriers and opportunities for improved management of shared sanitation. The study used focus group discussions and in-depth interviews with 70 users (landlords and tenants) of shared sanitation in Kumasi,…
Barriers and opportunities for cleanliness of shared sanitation facilities in low-income settlements in Kenya
The results highlight the need to focus on social aspects for improvement of cleanliness in shared sanitation facilities in low-income settlements. Through a social approach, shared sanitation facilities can be managed appropriately to provide the millions of low-income residents in Kenya an opportunity to access sanitation. This study provides further evidence on approaches for improved management of shared sanitation facilities in line with the…
