INNOVATIVE FINANCING

Unlocking non-grant-based financing for development for more than 2 decades

Innovative financing is crucial for being able to address the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). WASTE targets especially SDG 6 (clean water & sanitation) is especially underfunded, with €25 million available yet €12 billion required annually to achieve. WASTE catalyses private investments, local government funding, investment in sanitation and waste by households and local enterprises to create maximum leverage.
