| Abstract |
A methodology was developed for the evaluation of the benefit/cost ratio of water hygiene programs. The methodology is based upon regressions models. This methodology has been used to evaluate the benefit/cost ratio for water quality improvements that effect the incidence of the diseases salmonellosis, shigellosis and hepatitis. The regression methodology used could be used for other water programs subject to the availability of the appropriate data. |
