Armand Totouom

Revue française d'économie, 2021, vol. XXXVI, issue 2, 133-161

Abstract: This study identifies the determinants and the effects of household water collection according to sex and age in Cameroon. The result from the regression run shows that probabilities of water collection by a child or by a woman is affected by the socioeconomic and demographic characteristics of households as well as the collection time. Moreover, the study shed light on the significant opportunity cost of water collection time in terms of education for children and employment for women. These results call for policies that aim to extend pipe-borne water at home.
