Using Output-Based Aid to Increase Access to Domestic Sanitation in Manatuto
To complement the ADB-funded District Capitals Water Supply Project, Timor-Leste’s National Directorate of Basic Sanitation proposed a PDA on designing a scheme that will use performance-based subsidies to attract donors and investors in supporting sanitation projects for low-income communities in the urban area of Manatuto, a district in the central part of the country. This design will go beyond just toilets, and instead improve sanitation using a proposed system that includes collecting both human excreta and greywater through underground pipes that lead to safe treatment and disposal away from households, thereby enhancing wastewater management and basic sanitation as well as reducing health risks due to exposure to water-borne diseases. -
