Chapter Chapter 7 in Innovative Water Finance in Africa, 2023, pp 183-203 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Financial sustainability is achieved through enhanced creditworthiness and snowball effect of borrowing. This chapter presents sample cases of applications of innovative water financing mechanisms in Kenya based on scale formation and adoption practices. These include the cases of Murang’a-, Nyeri- and Embu Water and Sanitation Companies for enhanced creditworthiness, leadership and the use of Mobile Money and other technological innovations, as well as marketing and communication strategies to build Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) and raise capital and debt.
