Meeting women's needs and priorities for water and sanitation in cities describes the importance of safe and sufficient water supplies and provision for sanitation and drainage for health, especially for women since they take on most responsibilities for household management and childcare. The authors also describe how women are rarely consulted about their needs and priorities and how new orientations in water and sanitation projects that fully involve women can bring much greater benefits and improve project maintenance.
