COST/PROBLEM
(Water)
About 50% of us struggle with water shortages – for several villages, year after year is about being hit by drought due to irregular rain patterns. This carries a high cost in terms of…
- Disease. Water is taken from the contaminated location or the same sources used for bathing and washing clothes.
- Time and Effort. Mothers and children sometimes walk 4-12 hours for water.
- Ignorance. Children getting water can’t be in school.
- Poverty. Time fetching water can’t be used to create income.
- Danger. Hippos and crocodiles and other natural predators may live in or near the river or lake.

COST/PROBLEM
(Sanitation)
- 2.4 billion people live without improved sanitation (WHO/UNICEF 2015).
- One in ten people have no choice but to defecate in the open (WHO/UNICEF 2015).
- Diarrhoea caused by poor sanitation and unsafe water kills 315,000 children every year (WASH watch 2016).
- Disease transmission at work, mostly caused by poor sanitation and hygiene practices, causes 17 percent of all workplace deaths (ILO 2003).
- Loss of productivity due to illnesses caused by lack of sanitation and poor hygiene practices is estimated to cost many countries up to 5% of GDP (Hutton 2012).
- Poor sanitation costs Kenya, Kshs 27 billion annually, equivalent to US$324 million (WSP 2012), This sum is the equivalent of US$8 per person in Kenya per year or 0.9 per cent of the national GDP.
- Open defecation costs Kenya US$88 million per year, yet eliminating the practice would require less than 1.2 million latrines to be built and used (WSP 2012).
