Economic Benefits of Potable Water Supplies in Rural Areas of Developing Countries
That rural populations of Third World countries are in many cases unable to pay the full costs of water‐distribution systems has led to an increased effort to identify quantifiable benefits of the systems. Experience thus far has shown that the level of economic benefits resulting from improved rural water supplies depends upon how local health and employment are affected, which villages are selected to receive water first, and how the improved water supply affects population location and migration. Particularly important, however, are the ways in which rural water‐supply programs are administered and financed.
