  sanitation and waste management for urban residents. Using a systematic
  methodology, we match cities’ sanitation and waste management needs with
  technology and service delivery models, and then offer clear guidance on
  the steps that governments, funders, service providers and technology
  developers can take to develop and implement integrated service delivery
