The United Nations' sustainable development goals include eliminating open defecation by 2030, However, about 673 million people continue to practice it. Data from the 2000-2017 period suggests that less than half of the countries with high rates of open defecation are on track to end the practice by 2030. Populations in countries still practicing open defecation remain at greater risk for disease due to environmental degradation and contamination of water sources. These health impacts can result in high economic costs due to financial and productivity losses. One of these emerging approaches providing households with improved sanitation services is Container-Based Sanitation (CBS). CBS consists of hygienically collecting excreta in dry toilets equipped with removable containers that allow the user to safely transport them to a disposal area for treatment and transformation into a reusable material. In this context, the purpose of this report is to build on the World Bank's efforts to evaluate the potential of CBS sanitation alternatives by describing the implementation of a CBS system in a rural setting. Specifically, this report describes the implementation of the ZANA model, a homegrown CBS initiative developed and implemented in rural Haiti since 2015. The report focuses on describing the model's main components, its preliminary outcomes in terms of community adoption and potential challenges for scalability and sustainability.
