Using Output-Based Aid to Increase Access to Domestic Sanitation in Manatuto

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.
