Floods ravaged Ghana could generate GH¢556 in economic benefits for every GH¢1 invested in sanitation
Every cedi invested in improving Ghana's waste management and sanitation systems could generate as much as GH¢556 in annual economic benefits if the country increases spending to levels recommended for lower-middle-income economies, according to a new policy brief by the Institute of Statistical, Social and Economic Research (ISSER). The study, titled Waste or Wealth? The Economic Returns to Sanitation Investment in Ghana, argues that sanitation should be viewed as a high-return economic investment rather than merely an environmental or public health obligation.
