This book investigates how urban centers in East Africa can achieve sustainable development through the integration of social and technical diversity in waste and sanitation management. The authors, Bas van Vliet, Joost van Buuren, and Shaaban Mgana, utilize the 'Modernized Mixtures Approach' to argue that effective infrastructure requires a blend of formal governance, informal service providers, and active household participation. By examining the intersection of technology and social practice, the text provides a framework for addressing the complex sanitation challenges facing rapidly growing urban environments.
