Sanitation For a Growing Population

Lacking space, a landlord digs a new pit latrine next to the old one.

As Kasarani’s population increases, many landlords are now thinking of building vertically in multi-storied buildings, putting more strain on their existing latrines. The increased population density also makes it difficult to find space to dig new latrines. As a result of all of these challenges, Kasarani landlords and residents are eager to embrace alternatives. Women especially love the idea of having a toilet inside their home so they do not have to venture out to the latrine at night.
