Low-cost Toilet Options

A catalogue

Edited by Amaka Godfrey

This catalogue has been prepared to help house owners in low-income urban communities choose an appropriate low- cost toilet option. It is designed to be used by toilet builders or other NGO or government fieldworkers who support house owners in their decision. Specifically developed for use in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, it can also be used in many other low- income urban communities.

The toilet options presented in the catalogue were developed on the basis of results from consumer research and tested in low-income urban communities. Toilet builders were trained in the construction of each design.
