Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: In this research Ethiopia is used as a case study to examine how the health of people in developing nations is affected by latrine sanitation (or lack thereof). There has been extensive research on how water quality affects mortality rates, but there is little research on latrine sanitation’s relationship with maternal morbidity and infant mortality rates despite the fact that more people use poor sanitation facilities than are exposed to unsafe water. This research will explore if there is a relationship between latrine sanitation and maternal health and infant mortality rates in Ethiopia. This research uses Demographic Health Survey data on latrine source accessibility from 2000 and 2005. The data will be used to assess if there is a relationship between improved sanitation conditions and maternal health and infant mortality rates in Ethiopia between 2000 and 2005. The analysis will be completed in early summer, 2008.
