“…In fact, many researchers have focused on the greater negative impact on women when there is inadequate and/or absent water supply and sanitation solutions. Most of this research is dedicated to urban areas, peripheries, or rural areas, all of which are in a situation of vulnerability (Brewster et al, 2006;Wutich, 2009;Pilling, 2011;Crow et al, 2012;Kwiringira et al, 2014;McCarthy, 2014;Paria et al, 2014;Hirve et al, 2015;Padhi et al, 2015;Kansal et al, 2016;Caruso et al, 2017Caruso et al, , 2018Routray et al, 2017a). Based on qualitative and quantitative approaches, current studies reveal, especially, the negative impacts on women's health and quality of life, as they devote a considerable part of their time to water supply activities or suffer more from inappropriate sanitary solutions (Geere et al, 2010;Stevenson et al, 2012;Campbell et al, 2015;Hirve et al, 2015;Hulland et al, 2015).…”
