OBA in Senegal: Designing Technology-Neutral Concessions for Rural Electrification
Nationwide, only 30 percent of households in Senegal have access to electricity. Rural electrification is even lower at 12.5 percent of households, and limited to areas around large population centers and some tertiary centers.
Senegal On-site Sanitation Project
An output-based aid (OBA) on-site sanitation project in Senegal helped over 100,000 people access sanitation facilities in peri-urban areas of Dakar, improving the urban environment, community health, and the well-being of women and children. The project shows that well-targeted subsidies can reach a large portion of urban poor, and that investments in on-site sanitation are cost-effective.
