This study shows that the high number of people living with unimproved household sanitation is imposing large fi nancial and economic costs to the Indonesian economy, not only to private individuals but also to the public and commercial sectors. The results of this study support the need for greater investment in water and sanitation infrastructure and in promoting improved hygiene practices. The results will be of interest to national policy makers, local authorities, civil advocacy groups, universities and donor agencies.
