Impacts since August 2005• Planning, Monitoring and dissemination of results.• Computation of sectoral unit costs, policy dialogue on

inefficiencies of expenditures.• Conservative waste generation estimate

(expenditure and HH data):• Authorized PSP collection 1017 tons/day

• Unauthorized collection 803 tons/day• Collection by Solid Waste Authority 601 tons/day

• Cart pushers 120 tons/day

Lagos generates 3455 tons a day?

With respect to poverty..…..there was not much on Lagos, what existed

provided little operational guidance and did not support credible monitoring.

____________________________To fill the knowledge gaps:

• Need a non-income poverty assessment to target basic service delivery (welfare enhancement to poor households)

• A baseline to monitor impacts of sectoralexpenditures

Little understanding of the structure of Lagos’ economy..

…..to facilitate informed policy making for poverty reduction through job creation, and for removing constraints to growth, including location specific

constraints. Need to understand the linkages between firm size and sector and their relationship to employment creation.

______________________________What was needed: a comprehensive survey of

businesses (large, medium, micro, household) to understand the structure of

the economy.
