Abstract

The literature has little studied demand for improved access to sanitation of households in Africa. Only a few studies have been conducted from contingent valuation method ( ex ante demand). Using discrete choice models, we analyze the determinants of the demand ( ex post ) for improved sanitation services in six poor districts of Ouagadougou. The study highlights original results. The most original contribution of this work is the revelation of a negative relationship between improved access to sanitation and prevalence of waterborne diseases. The use of an improved latrine is not enough to escape the water borne diseases. These results suggest that a combination of public interventions is necessary; the various MDG targets (particularly improving access to safe water, sanitation services and reducing of the prevalence of waterborne diseases) are closely linked.
