4. Background Information
Inadequate sanitation is a major cause of preventable illnesses in children around the world. According to UNICEF, diarrhea alone causes over 1.6 million deaths in children under 5. These illnesses can easily be prevented by improving sanitation. However, cost is a major barrier limiting the adoption of sanitation in Haiti.
Peter Morgan’s Arborloo is a simple latrine built over a small pit, which when filled is then moved to a new pit location. The old, filled pit then has vegetation planted on top of it, such as a fruit tree.

5. P14415 Problem Statement Current State
Difficult to adopt in rural areas due to high cost and transportation difficulties

Project Goals
Analyze the current arborloo design to find opportunities to incorporate plastic
Help improve sanitation in Haiti
Constraints
System must be financeable in parts
Design must incorporate plastic
Design must be compliant with the skills and tools available to the intended population
