The Dioulabougou district made up of Dioulabougou 1, 2 and 3 sub-districts in the city of Sinfra is facing a continuous deterioration of its living environment. A degradation which is characterized by the proliferation of waste water discharge points and the proliferation of household waste. The objective of this study is to show the environmental and health risks related to household waste in the Dioulabougou district. The methodology adopted is based on documentary research and a questionnaire survey addressed to heads of households. The results show that the streets constitute for 86.88% of the households the places of waste water disposal. A practice that forces 67.21% of respondents to live less than 25 meters from waste water discharge points. Household waste is dumped in the street by 44.81% of households. These practices expose populations to cases of diseases such as malaria (44%), influenza (28%) and diarrheal diseases (15%). Children under 5 are the most affected (35.33%) by cases of illness. Pharmacies are the main recourse in case of illness in the Dioulabougou district.
