	abstract = {An informal slum community called Pachacutec, located on the urban fringe of Lima, Peru has several sanitation provision deficiencies that the Peruvian government has yet to and appears unable to address. A new sanitation approach using a composting facility and collection process can boost the proportion of the population with access to improved sanitation. In doing so, it should operate within the economic, technological and human resource capacity of the community, using profit incurred from compost and small trees sales to finance its services. As an alternative to ocean dumping in Peru, composting can also encourage the greenification of parks and schoolyards in addition to stopping the spread of pathogens that contribute to intestinal disease. This thesis will draw from local and international sources to demonstrate the potential for a pilot project initiative. If the proposed pilot is eventually constructed it will be a foundation for further research.},
