L’accès à l’eau potable et à l’assainissement constitue un bon indicateur du niveau de développement d’un pays. En Afrique, la situation se caractérise par une diversité de modes d’accès à ces services de base et par une disparité de situation selon les pays, les villes et à l’intérieur des villes. Cette thématique traite de ces problématiques avec une étude de cas d’une ville secondaire et termine par l’analyse du cadre législatif, réglementaire et institutionnelle de la gestion du secteur.

L’environnement aussi bien physique que socio-économique des villes africaines interagissent avec la santé des populations. Pour ces villes, en cours de transition sanitaire, la compréhension des enjeux et les solutions à mettre en œuvre pourront contribuer à améliorer le profil sanitaire des populations urbaines et réduire les taux de morbidité et de mortalité liés notamment à la double charge des maladies infectieuses et parasitaires et maladies chroniques.

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
You will be eligible for a full refund until two weeks after your payment date, or (for courses that have just launched) until two weeks after the first session of the course begins, whichever is later. You cannot receive a refund once you’ve earned a Course Certificate, even if you complete the course within the two-week refund period. See our full refund policy.
