It is part of a larger study on improving sanitation in cold regions where sewerage may not be a practical solution. The report grew out of a pilot project meant to improve sanitation in the Ger areas by connecting households to the municipal water supply system and to a small, independent sewerage system. For a number of reasons, operating the system was very challenging. Thus, the question arose of what practicable, affordable technical options exist for improving sanitation in the Ger areas of Ulaanbaatar and other cold regions. The study is aimed at answering that question. 2018-01-19T22:31:21Z 2018-01-19T22:31:21Z 2017-12-01 Report http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/821691516390019285/Challenges-and-opportunities-for-improving-household-sanitation-in-the-Ger-areas-of-Ulaanbaatar http://hdl.handle.net/10986/29201 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research Publications & Research :: Working Paper East Asia and Pacific Mongolia
