In recognition of the diversity of environmental, social and economic diversity amongst urban residents in Honiara’s informal settlements, a range of water and sanitation service delivery models may need to be offered. This assessment identifies the range of possible water and sanitation service models, and, with input from Solomon Water, informal settlement residents and other stakeholders, together with analytical information and lessons about service delivery models used elsewhere, makes recommendations about the water and sanitation service options best suited to informal Honiara’s settlements. 2019-12-03T21:27:29Z 2019-12-03T21:27:29Z 2019-10 Working Paper http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/514751574138362122/Water-and-Sanitation-Services-for-Informal-Settlements-in-Honiara-Solomon-Islands http://hdl.handle.net/10986/32758 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Working Paper East Asia and Pacific Solomon Islands
