Many households in some of South Africa’s biggest cities have been facing water restrictions in recent times – sometimes lasting for days at a time. Flushing toilets connected to a sewer network, septic tank, or conservancy tank. Another 19% have ventilated improved pit latrines, while 13% have pit toilets with no ventilation pipes. The remaining population either has poured flush toilets, chemical toilets, or composting toilets, or they use buckets. Unfortunately, about 1% of the population still practice open defecation because they have no access to any sort of toilet facility. South Africa is a water-scarce country that has faced extreme weather events in recent years. For example in 2018 Cape Town faced severe drought and the possibility of running out of water. More recently, the east coast city of Durban was hit by floods that damaged bulk water and sanitation infrastructure. With the country’s challenges around water management and availability, it’s just not feasible and viable to continue with waterborne sanitation. One of the greatest bright spots in 10 facts about sanitation in Africa is the Reinvent the Toilet Challenge. Created by Bill and Melinda Gates, the Reinvent the Toilet Challenge asks innovators to create affordable solutions to poor sanitation in developing countries. As a result, 20 different engineering companies created low-cost and sanitary toilets. These projects still need work to be implemented on a large scale, but they offer hugely promising results for our future world.
