    Description
    Description

    The FINISH Mondial programme envisions a world in which people have access to safely managed sanitation and are financially included.
    FINISH Mondial works through the Diamond model-approach which is proven for local sanitation market development. It constitutes four key pillars: communities, financiers, government and businesses. It is a multi-stakeholder approach to build local sustainable systems for the construction of improved (SDG6-proof) sanitation systems. Until to date, FINISH has been able to facilitate over 1,5 million safely managed toilets reaching nearly 8 million people, generating 16 million workdays for local entrepreneurs. Over € 280 million have been invested by consumers and financial institutions in sanitation. FINISH also contributes to climate change mitigation by treatment of 41,860 tons of solid waste and 16,830 tons of fecal sludge and saving 5,800 ton of carbon dioxide equivalent greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

    Through the circular sanitation economy model, we contribute to climate change mitigation and adaption and the SDGs. FINISH Mondial facilitates access to safely managed sanitation facilities at the household level, guaranteeing that facilities are safely managed. The entire sanitation service and value chain is considered from containment to collection to treatment and reuse. FINISH Mondial takes the sanitation chain a step further towards a circular sanitation economy in which toilet resources (human waste) feed into a system which replaces traditional waste management with a circular economy approach.

    Although FINISH Mondial is based on field experiences and studies of multiple years of engagement, learning is at the heart of the programme. The internal learning has been very strong. The FINISH Mondial teams have (acquired) the capability and capacity to adopt to new circumstances, and identify opportunities for expansion, innovation and new partnerships locally. In the 6-country FM programme, learning becomes more complex and also offers new opportunities. Good quality monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL) are key to this. The monitoring and evaluation (M&E) process is guided by the MEAL working group which includes dedicated M&E staff in the countries. Derived from the Theory of Change, the MEAL working group has compiled a monitoring and evaluation framework. The framework is supported by indicators on impact, outcome and output level including the frequency and methodology of data collection. Next to baseline and end line studies, midterm and end term evolutions, monthly reporting schedules emphasis is placed on digital data collection and analysis.

    Governance Structure:
    The Supervisory Board includes a representation of the partner organisations WASTE, Amref Flying Doctors and Aqua for All on executive level and two independent advisors with a background in development and finance, the chair is independent. The Management Team is led by an executive team of Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operational Officer and Chief Financial Officer and includes representatives of the main partner organisations WASTE, Amref Flying Doctors, Aqua for All, Amref Health Africa and FINISH Society. A similar governance structure has been set up in the six countries with an independent country coordinator as secretary of the local supervisory/advisory board and head of the management team.

    Expected Impact

    Impact: FINISH Mondial aims to contribute to healthier and economically empowered communities.

    Principal Outcomes:
    • People use and maintain safely managed sanitation and basic hygiene facilities
    • Children use and benefit from safely managed sanitation systems at school
    • Households practice waste segregation at source

    Intermediate outcomes:
    • Governments allocate and spend budget for sanitation
    • (Poor) households construct a toilet
    • Sanitation marketers connect demand with supply actors
    • Businesses sell range of goods and services for safely managed sanitation
    • Financial institutions issue sanitation loan products
