Evolving Metrics For Monitoring Sanitation Market Systems
Allison Salinger, Geoff Revell

We don’t reach millions of people.
We build systems that do.

The Challenge
• Monitor a market system
•…as you build it
•… and ensure its sustainability
4
The Challenge
• Monitor something dynamic
•…as you build it
•… and ensure its sustainability
5
The Challenge
• Monitor something dynamic
•…before you know what you don’t know
•… and ensure its sustainability
6
• Monitor something dynamic
•…before you know what you don’t know
•… and use locally led mechanisms and
local actors wherever possible

The Solution
• Adaptive monitoring approach
• Responsiveness to learnings
• Local, government-led data collection

Proportion of latrine purchases facilitated by WaterSHEDstaff, by year
Unfacilitated purchases WaterSHED-supported purchases Active suppliers
As we began to
pull back from
direct market
facilitation (2015),
we see the % of
independent sales
increase over
time.

Influence of local leaders on the market system
Unfacilitated purchases WaterSHED-supported purchases
Other purchases Active suppliers
Influence of local leaders (mean difference)
In 2017, districts
with trained
government leaders
had, on average, 116
more latrine sales
than districts with
untrained leaders. 116

The Tradeoffs
•Transferability; comparison across time points and contexts
•High-resolution vs. low-resolution data
15
Which would you choose?
• Adaptive approach, with lower resolution metrics and
less transferable methods
• Static approach, with more comparable but
potentially less meaningful metrics
