Innovative financing mechanism
Innovative financing options can leverage limited public funds and bring greater effectiveness. The emphasis on innovative models is not only to leverage additional funds but to attract private investment by giving incentives using performance-based approaches that improve outcome efficiency and effectiveness of services. CWAS has explored various innovative financing mechanisms for investments in sanitation services like Development Impact Bonds (DIBs), Performance Linked Annuity Models (PLAM), crowdfunding, CSR, etc.
