Sustainability criteria in sanitation planning
conference contribution
posted on 2018-02-12, 15:09 authored by Elisabeth Kvarnstrom, Patrick Bracken, Alberto Ysunza, Erik Kärrman, Anders Finnson, Darren SaywellThis article presents a list of sustainability criteria that might be of importance when assessing different sanitation solutions.
The criteria presented are divided into the categories health, environment, economy, socio-culture, and technical
function. We strongly recommend the use of sustainability criteria in any strategic sanitation planning and decision-making
process whether on a macro or micro project level. Moreover, sanitation sustainability criteria can be used for follow-up
and evaluation of sanitation systems. The list of criteria presented in this paper can be used to narrow down and focus
discussions among decision-makers and also inspire to the development of context-specific sustainability criteria in the
actual planning situation.
