🌍 Impact Beyond Borders! 🌍 [4/5] After success in India, FINISH Mondial expanded to Kenya, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, Tanzania, and Uganda—each bringing unique challenges that shaped our approach. In Kenya, low toilet demand led us to incentivize sanitation marketers, boosting both demand and MFI loan portfolios. 🚽💡 Our team adapted regionally, training artisans to build water-efficient toilets and complementing grant-funded sectors with sustainable MFI options, making sanitation solutions more effective across diverse communities. 🌱 Read our full sanitation paper series 5 here: https://lnkd.in/gFuMwYHY #GlobalSanitation #LessonsFromExpansion #SanitationForAll #FINISHMondialJourney #SanitationPaperSeries5 WASTE NL Amref Flying Doctors NL Caritas Fort Portal - HEWASA FINISH Society - India FINISH Mondial Kenya FINISH Mondial Bangladesh TRUST OF PEOPLE

🛠️Overcoming Challenges…learning from Mistakes 🛠️ [3/5] The path for FINISH Mondial was not entirely smooth sailing but fraught with a number of challenges and mistakes-each of which imparted invaluable lessons! Issues ranging from poor quality sanitation facilities, to lack of transparency and need of area-specific programing were handled with utmost care. We organized Master Training Programmes to reorient masons and ground-level workers to build technically sound toilets that met the standards. Furthermore, we employed third-party agencies to double-check the number of toilets built and ensured transparency in reporting while adapting suitable measures to deal with region-specific sanitation challenges, especially in countries like Kenya which had scarce water resources. Every challenge refined our approach, making our impact stronger and more reliable. Learning from mistakes is part of building a sustainable future! 🌱 #OvercomingChallenges #SafelyManagedSanitation #SanitationForAll #BuildingStrongerCommunities #FINISHMondial #WorldToiletDay #WTD2024 WASTE NL Amref Flying Doctors NL Caritas Fort Portal - HEWASA FINISH Society - India FINISH Mondial Kenya FINISH Mondial Bangladesh TRUST OF PEOPLE

🚽 Why Sanitation Matters? 🚽 [2/5] Sanitation is not merely removal and management of human and other wastes, but a long-term investment in people’s health and future! 🌟 At FINISH Mondial, we have championed the cause of providing sustainable sanitation solutions that are essential to both health and dignity of the communities. 🌟 By ensuring robust, state-of-the-art WASH infrastructures, we have actively prevented spread of diseases such as cholera and diarrhea, while reducing medical costs. 🌟 Access to readily available toilet facilities have ensured that people can relieve themselves in a safe and dignified manner, without losing time that can be spent towards working/learning. 🌟 Lastly, building and maintaining toilets has become another source of economic mobility by providing venues for employments as well as viable byproducts such as fertilizers that bring in money. 💪 Learn more about why we’re passionate about this mission here: https://lnkd.in/drjbyzFV #SanitationMatters #HealthForAll #EconomicEmpowerment #FINISHMondial #WorldToiletDay #WTD2024 #SanitationForAll #NovemberPosts WASTE NL Amref Flying Doctors NL AMREF Caritas Fort Portal - HEWASA FINISH Society - India TRUST OF PEOPLE FINISH Mondial Kenya FINISH Mondial Bangladesh

🌍 A journey towards a cleaner future…literally! 🌍 [1/5] As World Toilet Day approaches, we are excited to revisit our story, our journey—a journey towards a cleaner, healthier, and more dignified future for all. The United Nations’ #SDG6 aims to ensure universal access to clean water and sanitation. But what about the communities without the financial means to achieve this? This is where FINISH Mondial stepped in! Fifteen years ago, we pioneered a sustainable model that integrates microfinance with sanitation, transforming lives with small loans to build toilets and waste management systems. By upholding the principles of dignity, health, and cleanliness, we have made sanitation accessible to those who once had no means to achieve it. 💡 Over the next few days, we’ll share the challenges, successes, and innovative solutions that have shaped our mission—and continue to inspire us. Join us in celebrating this transformative journey! #FINISHMondial #SanitationForAll #MicrofinanceForGood #WorldToiletDay #WTD2024 #SustainableDevelopmentGoals Toilet Board Coalition WASTE NL Amref Flying Doctors NL Harriet Robson Anja Bruschweiler Caritas Fort Portal - HEWASA FINISH Mondial Kenya FINISH Society - India FINISH Mondial Bangladesh TRUST OF PEOPLE
