  • Summary Dataset: Water and Sanitation Tariffs in Latin America
    Dataset

    By Water and Sanitation Division (VPS/INE/WSA)
    This dataset was generated by the Knowledge team in the Inter-American Development Bank's Water and Sanitation division from publicly available information to allow for the characterization and comparison of tariff systems and subsidies.

For more information about this process and general trends in the dataset please see "How Much Do Households Pay for Water Supply and Sanitation Services in Latin America?
