Sanitation and water supplies are critical to health and an adequate standard of living. In Papua New Guinea water supplies in both rural and urban areas are installed with no attention to the social and cultural aspects of water use and personal hygiene. This paper argues that improved hygiene and sanitation could be achieved if sufficient resources were focused on the people who use water and sanitation systems and not simply on the systems themselves.
卫生设施和供水对健康及适当的生活水平至关重要。在巴布亚新几内亚，农村和城市地区的供水设施安装时都没有考虑到用水和个人卫生的社会文化方面。本文认为，如果将足够的资源集中于使用水和卫生系统的人群，而不仅仅是系统本身，那么卫生和环境卫生状况将会得到改善。
