Abstract
This thesis analyzes the human waste crisis in India. The lack of sanitation facilities as well as open defecation seriously impacts India's ability to achieve its sanitation goals by 2015. More importantly, if the World Health Organization is to meet its Millennium Development Target of improved sanitation for all by 2015, it is critical that India must meet its goals. Although certainly not by 2015, this paper will seek to explain the likelihood and the means by which India can attain this goal by 2022.
