Brazilian Northeast Water and Sanitation Crisis Dataset (BNWSC)

Overview

This dataset provides multidisciplinary data on water access, sanitation, public health, and socioeconomic disparities in Brazil's Northeast region. It integrates official sources (2014–2022) and includes projections up to 2030, supporting research in public policy, collective health, and sustainability.

Key Features

Applications

Variables

Water access (% of population).
Sewage connection (% of population).
Hospitalizations for waterborne diseases (total cases and rate per 10k inhabitants).
Sanitation investments (in BRL millions).
State HDI.
Per capita income by state.

Temporal Coverage

Historical data: 2014–2022.
Forecasts: 2023–2030 (Prophet model).
