Project Justification 1a. Project Description 1. Background Information 1.a. Solomon Islands and Honiara The Solomon Islands is a small island developing state (SIDS) in the South West Pacific Ocean. With a population of about 687,000, the Melanesian country is composed of over 900 islands spread across 9 provinces (Figure 1). Many of the islands are small and many are in atoll settings. A few are larger, mountainous, and of volcanic origin. The economy of Solomon Islands is largely based on services (approximately 40 percent of GDP), agriculture (approximately 15 percent of GDP) and forestry (approximately 15 percent of GDP). The manufacturing sector remains very small. Much of the population depends on subsistence agriculture for their livelihoods. The country is one of the most vulnerable to the adverse impacts of climate change – ranked among the top 40 most vulnerable global nations in the ND-GAIN 2016 Index. This is due in large part to the fact that the majority of the population lives within 1.5 km of the coastline and the islands are regularly exposed to extreme rainfall events. High poverty rates, excessive dependence on foreign aid, and remoteness make the Solomon Islands particularly vulnerable to climate variability and change. The country is officially classified as a Least Developed Country (LDC)

Any omission and error or otherwise is my own and the main content of this thesis has not previously submitted for any degree in any other University. ………………… Lincy Pende Date: A Statement by Supervisor I hereby confirm that the work contained in this thesis is of Lincy Pende unless otherwise acknowledged. ………………………. Dr. Manoranjan Mohanty Date: ii ABSTRACT Urbanisation is an inevitable process of development in developing countries. It presents both challenges and opportunities. In most of the developing countries however, the rate of urban growth outstretches the abilities of cities to cope. The urban growth put pressure on civic authorities, making them under-resourced in providing basic urban services at adequate levels. Consequently, cities and towns have become centers of more problems rather than opportunities for progress. The present study aims to investigate the impact of urban growth on the provision of water-supply and sanitation services in Honiara City. The study is underpinned by the key proposition that rapid urban growth has adverse impact on water and sanitation services.
