A recent evaluation of the sanitation market in Haiti has estimated the monthly average willingness to pay of households for toilets construction is $24.50. There are approximately 3.1 million households in urban areas which have less than basic sanitation and 3.9 million in rural areas. Unlocking private finance and fostering innovation are essential to bridging the financial gap and make sanitation affordable.

This panel will explore investment strategies and current innovations tin the market, with a particular focus on the new application, SaniPay – a mobile one-stop shop for sanitation services in Haiti. Additionally, we will discuss how the diaspora can leverage this app to enhance access to basic sanitation services and contribute to a sustainable sanitation market in Haiti.
