| Rationale for using outcome based finance - (Value) | Scaling SOIL’s market-based approach by reducing costs through economies of scale, creating incentives for cost-efficient operations and proving a mechanism which could later be replicated for public funding of sanitation services in urban Haiti. |

| Key challenges to launch - (Value) | (1) Misalignment of objectives between the Haitian government and the potential outcomes funder, due to the latter ‘moving the goalposts’ on program scope and intended outcomes. (2) Potential outcomes funder sought to impose unrealistic cost recovery targets over a short period of time. |

| Purpose and classifications - Social/Developmental challenge - (Value) | In Haiti, only 30% of the population has access to improved sanitation and less than 1% of waste is safely treated. This has fueled one of the most virulent cholera epidemics in recent global history. While aquatic ecosystems become increasingly polluted with nutrients from human waste, the earth’s soil nutrients have been rapidly declining due to erosion and intensive agricultural practices, leading to a loss of biodiversity, extreme vulnerability to climate-related risks, reduced agricultural production, poverty, and malnutrition. As Haitian cities expand, unplanned, at staggering rates, it’s critical that the sanitation sector develops innovative approaches that work in dense urban areas to avoid exacerbating the toll of preventable waterborne diseases. |
| Purpose and classifications - Expected intervention model - (Value) | SOIL operates an integrated waste management system, from containment of human waste through safe transportation to treatment. This program focuses on expansion of SOIL’s ‘EkoLakay’ container-based household sanitation service and to safely transport and treat the associated waste |
