What are the Challenges in Implementing Sanitation Infrastructure?
Several challenges hinder the implementation of effective sanitation infrastructure:
- Financial Constraints: Limited funding for constructing and maintaining sanitation facilities. - Political Will: Lack of commitment from governments to prioritize sanitation in public health agendas. - Cultural Practices: Traditional beliefs and practices that oppose the use of toilets or modern sanitation methods. - Technical Expertise: Shortage of skilled personnel to design, construct, and maintain sanitation systems. - Urbanization: Rapid urban growth outpacing the development of necessary infrastructure.
