Abstract

Sur la base des données de la Cinquième Enquête Démographique de Santé réalisée auprès de 33 988 ménages au Cameroun, cet article identifie les déterminants d'accès à l'eau potable. De l'estimation d'une régression logistique multinomiale non ordonnée, les résultats montrent qu'il existe: une relation positive entre les ménages dirigés par les femmes et les probabilités d'accès à l'eau potable par robinet et par borne‐fontaine; une relation négative entre l'augmentation de la taille du ménage et ces probabilités d'accès. Une relation positive entre le quintile du bien‐être économique (catégorie la plus riche) et les probabilités d'accès à l'eau potable par robinet et forage; une relation positive entre le raccordement à l'électricité d'un ménage et la probabilité d'accès à l'eau potable par robinet. Enfin, une relation positive entre les ménages vivant en zones urbaines et les probabilités d'accès à ces trois catégories de sources d'eau potable améliorée que sont: l'eau par robinet, borne‐fontaine et forage. Sur ces déterminants, nous discutons les leçons pratiques de politiques publiques afin de favoriser l'accès à l'eau pour tous.
