Measuring Access and Practice: Designing a Survey Methodology for the Hygiene, Sanitation and Water Sector
No full textAccess to safe water and sanitary means of excreta disposal are essential elements of
human development and poverty alleviation. It is estimated that one in four people in
the developing world lacks access to water while over half the population has no
access to sanitation. From the Alma-Ata declaration in 1978 to the recent Millennium
Development Goals, efforts to improve this situation have been hampered by the lack
of meaningful indicators to measure hygiene, sanitation and water coverage and
establish progress towards the goals and targets set out by the international
community.
This thesis aims to determine if measuring prevalence of access to water~ sanitation
and the practice of hygienic behaviour in hous~hold surveys can be.improved. With
no indicators available in current international' laws and targets, various aspects of
access and practice were examined to design indicators for field-testing. By using
- existing data sets, the research established that there is a high geographic clustering of
the measures of interest, which results in large design effects (deff) and rates of
homogeneity (roh) in cluster surveys. Based on the calculated roh optimum numbers
ofcluster and sample size were calculated for the field trials. This requires
introducing survey costs in the sample size calculations. The high clustering of water
and sanitation indicator require large sample sizes, resulting in large amounts of data
which organisations in the four field trials in Kosovo, South Africa, Kenya and Laos
found difficult to handle. Practical problems in the implementation of the survey
method resulted in non-sampling errors and could cause reluctance in adoption the
methodology. The research improved water and sanitation indicators but found that
for individual behaviour such as hygiene the household is not a suitable sampling unit.
It also showed that observation among interviewers have to be better standardised to
reduce the inter-surveyor.variation. Representative sampling is the current bottleneck
in the development of such a survey method. Current method requires a good
understanding of sampling theory as well as reliable sample frames, which are rarely
available to implementing organisations. Alternative sampling methods are
suggested, and recommendations are made for the further development ofthe survey
method designed in this research, which to date may be too complex for widespread
use
