“We acknowledged that though, financing the water sector has been a challenge, we intend to make potable water available and accessible for Lagosians by shopping for private sector investments, as most of the financing for water and sanitation comes from public budget and donor financing; hence our Call-for-Action to the private sector to explore the huge opportunities that abound in the water supply and sanitation services sub-sector in Lagos, to deliver value while also enjoying commercial gains.” LIWAC 2023
Financing Water & Sanitation For a Greater Lagos
Innovative Financing Models for Sanitation and Water
Governance and Policy frameworks for facilitating investments in Water and Sanitation
As we stand at the cusp of transformative change, the challenges surrounding water and sanitation in our rapidly growing city demand innovative solutions and sustainable financing mechanisms. This conference serves as a platform to bridge the gap between the pressing needs of our communities and the potential for global partnerships and local innovations to create a future where access to clean water and sanitation is not a privilege but a fundamental right for all Lagosians. The decisions we make and the collaborations we forge can significantly impact millions of lives. Through this conference, we seek to explore avenues for investment and engagement that will propel Lagos into a new era of improved access to water and sanitation for all, environmental sustainability and public health.
