Comparing Sanitation Delivery Modalities in Urban Informal Settlement Schools: A Randomized Trial in Nairobi, Kenya

Abstract: The provision of safely managed sanitation in informal settlements is a challenge, especially in schools that require durable, clean, sex-segregated facilities for a large number of children. In informal settlements in Nairobi, school sanitation facilities demand considerable capital costs, yet are prone to breakage and often unhygienic. The private sector may be able to provide quality facilities and services to schools at lower costs as an alternative to the sanitation that is traditionally provided by the g… Show more

“…Seven experimental or quasi-experimental studies evaluated the effectiveness of WASH interventions on health outcomes in urban SSA since 2000 (Table 2). Four studies used an individual or cluster randomised controlled trial design to evaluate impact (Du Preez et al 2011;Davis et al 2013;Bohnert et al 2016), one used randomisation to allocate clusters to one of four interventions, without a control comparison group (Davis et al 2011), one applied a non-randomised controlled, quasi-experimental design (Montgomery et al 2012), and one simply applied a pre-and post-intervention survey to assess intervention impact over time (Ryman et al 2012). All interventions under evaluation used information and education strategies to promote particular behaviours.…”

“…The study by is notable for explicitly addressing shared responsibility and community-level action and hygienic behaviours whereas the other studies largely focussed on individual-or household-level behaviours. Five studies supplemented information with technical interventions of varying degrees of sophistication, ranging from basic hygiene kits to solar technology and sanitation services (Bohnert et al 2016;Du Preez et al 2011;Davis et al 2013;Montgomery et al 2012;Ryman et al 2012). No included studies explicitly addressed contextual drivers of WASH such as governmental, institutional, private or public sector factors.…”
