| Summary: | This smart lesson explains how donor
funds have been used to leverage domestic market finance and
equity for investment in small piped water infrastructure in
the peri-urban and rural areas of Kenya. Given the immense
pressure on government and donor resources to achieve the
Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), this approach shows
that leveraging donor funds not only increases the volume of
investments financed but improves the sustainability of
these investments by linking debt service to system functionality. |
