Urban Sewerage and Sanitation
Lessons learned from case studies in the Philippines
Penerbit: WSP-EAP, Jun 2003
Urban sanitation is one of the most serious challenges facing the Government of the Philippines. As a result of rising urbanization over the last twenty years, more than half the population now live in densely populated cities and towns. By some estimates, about 80% of these urban households have access to adequate sanitation, such as toilets, but the vast majority of them are reliant on private sanitation facilities.
Less than 8% of the households in Metro Manila have sewer connections, and coverage is lower still in the rest of the country. Only three of the 1,500 cities and towns in the Philippines contain functioning public sewerage systems, and these are now old, undersized, and in need of major rehabilitation. A few communal toilets have been constructed in low-income urban areas, but there is little evidence of any other public sanitation services.
