Definition

Individuals: People whose living environment has been improved through solid waste management, drainage, or vector control activities will typically include the entire catchment population within close vicinity of the activity performed.  
The quality of “service” they receive is further “improved” in terms of its ease of accessibility, reliability, and/or affordability. Include a description of how the “catchment” population was determined for these activities.

Solid waste management: The process of handling and disposal of waste material which can pose public health risks and have negative impact on the environment if not attended to appropriately.

Drainage: The means of removing surplus surface water in or near settlements. 

Vector control: A variety of initiatives used to limit or eradicate disease-carrying agents (e.g., insects, other arthropods, rodents).

Recommended Means of Verification

Calculation: This is a count of individual beneficiaries receiving improved service quality from solid waste management, drainage, or vector control activities. Each individual should only be counted once, regardless of the number of activities to which they are a beneficiary.

Suggested Data Collection Method/Tool:  Routine monitoring sources or IMPACT
