ABSTRACT: The objective of this
article is to analyze the determinants that influence the behavior of Congolese
households in the commune of Pointe-Noire in their choice of supply modes for
running water. Using an unordered multinomial logit model, the study shows that
only the variables household income, level of education, daily cost of
purchasing water, gender, household size, type of construction materials and
quantity of water drawn are significant determinants nts that positively influence the supply modes used
for running water for the populations of the city of Pointe-Noire.
