Monitoring access to safely managed water services: exploring spatial integration of regulatory databases with household surveys and population census

博士课题旨在将水监管数据库、人口普查和家庭调查与水质模块相结合，以回答以下问题：监管数据库中有关水务设施的服务质量和收费信息在多大程度上与家庭调查的相关信息一致？考虑到通过监管数据库对水服务的安全管理，安全饮用水获取方面的不平等会受到什么影响？人口普查和家庭调查数据如何与水监管机构的数据库在空间上整合，以监测安全管理的饮用水服务的使用？作为案例研究国家，我们预计重点关注巴拉圭、厄瓜多尔和哥伦比亚。

The PhD topic aims to integrate water regulatory databases, population censuses and households surveys with water quality modules to answer the following questions:To what extent are service quality and tariff information concerning water utilities in regulatory databases consistent with related information from household surveys?How are inequalities in safe water access affected when taking into account the safe management of water services through regulatory databases?How can population census and household survey data be spatially integrated with databases from water regulators, so as to monitor use of safely managed drinking water services?As case study countries, we anticipate focussing on Paraguay, Ecuador, and Colombia.
