摘要

随着全球城市化的不断发展,确保所有城市公民享有足够的卫生条件变得越来越重要。获得足够和适当的卫生设施对人口密度高的低收入地区来说是一个特别的挑战。在乌干达古卢市,87%的人口依靠共享的卫生设施。本文调查了在什么情况下共享厕所可以提供改善的卫生设施。它探讨了利益相关者对共享厕所的看法——使用者、政治领导人和咕噜的主要决策者。调查结果是从现有的10000多个家庭的数据集中进行分析的,同时还有来自家庭访谈、卫生检查员、卫生工作者、政治领导人的关键线人访谈和焦点小组讨论的定性数据。研究结果表明,在人们缺乏空间和经济手段建造个体家庭厕所的地区,共享厕所有可能改善获得强化卫生技术的机会。为了让共享厕所被接受,它们将具有更高的卫生技术,位于私人土地上,用户熟悉,并商定清洁和维护制度。因此,该文件建议改进共享设施的使用技术和安排,达到让用户满意的水平,并改善低收入城市地区获得安全卫生设施的机会。

Stakeholder acceptance of shared toilets to improve sanitation access in low-income urban settings: a case study of Gulu city, Uganda
With growing worldwide urbanisation, ensuring adequate sanitation for all urban citizens is gaining importance. Access to sufficient and appropriate sanitation presents particular challenges for low-income areas of high population density. In Gulu city, Uganda, 87% of the population relies on shared sanitation facilities. This paper investigates under what circumstances shared toilets can offer access to improved sanitation facilities. It explores stakeholders' perceptions of shared toilets – users, political leaders, and key decision-makers of Gulu. Findings are analysed from an existing dataset of over 10,000 households, alongside qualitative data from household interviews, key informant interviews with health inspectors, health workers, political leaders, and focus group discussions. Results reveal that shared toilets have the potential to improve access to enhanced sanitation technology in areas where people lack the space and financial means to construct individual household toilets. For shared toilets to be acceptable, they would be of a higher sanitation technology, located on private land, with the familiarity of users, and agreed cleaning and maintenance regimes. The paper, therefore, proposes improving both the technology and arrangements for the use of shared facilities, to a level that satisfies users and improves access to safe sanitation in low-income urban areas.
