WHAT IS FINISH
FINISH stands for: Financial Inclusion Improves Sanitation & Health and aims for sanitation for all through an integrated model that addresses both the demand and supply side of the sanitation challenge.
The programme works with a multistakeholder approach which involves the entire value chain. By mobilising the supply side of sanitation while integrating financial resources into the value chain, the programme raises awareness on and creates a demand for sanitation services amongst end-users.
We ensure that:
- People are aware of the need for a safe and durable toilet,
- People want to buy one and can afford it,
- Local people can build one.

OUR STRATEGY
The Diamond Approach
Our goals can be achieved when key stakeholders in the four Diamond domains work towards the development of local sanitation markets for the poor and inclusive scale of these markets.
COMMUNITIES
Demand improved toilets for which they are willing to pay. This includes mobilization of money for a safe toilet. Demand is stirred by community based sanitation promotors who market safe sanitation to communities.
BUSINESSES
Offer cheaper, new and improved products, including toilets, and services for safely managed sanitation. This includes strengthening of the supply chain and valorization of human waste.
FINANCIERS
Develop and market sanitation credit and other financial products for sanitation effectively addressing the demand for financial services in sanitation from households as well from entrepreneurs.
GOVERNMENT
Develops and implements laws and regulations on sanitation standards and stimulates sanitation market growth through leadership in awareness creation and proactive engagement in PPPs for improved sanitation.
