Cost of Providing Sustainable Water,Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Services: An initial assessment of LCCA in Andhra Pradesh

Published By: CESS on eSS | Published Date: May, 08 , 2010

Using information in the public domain and data from a pilot study, this paper argues that adoption of life-cycle cost approaches (LCCA) could play a significant role in rectifying this situation by providing a framework for identifying and plugging gaps in the present pattern of expenditure. It is argued also that LCCA will provide a sound basis for operationalising the Water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) Guidelines released by the Rajiv Gandhi National Drinking Water Mission in 2009.
