Abstract | This report is a summary of four field activities carried out in Machala, Ecuador between 11 March and 9 July 1993. These activities included: a. a workshop to build local skills in cholera prevention and control; b. a prefeasibility study for the development of a water management plan; c. a workshop to review technical options available for improving community sanitation in peri-urban areas, and d. technical assistance to the municipal water and sanitation departments on cost recovery and financial management. The report relates each of the four activities to an earlier WASH activity which assessed the drinking water quality of Machala, summarizes the implementation of each activity, and assesses the immediate post implementation impact. The report also provides an assessment of lessons learned and actions for the future. |
