 Location of library entry

This library entry contains key documents involved in the implementation of the UBSUP programme, from the social marketing for improved toilet at household level to the construction and operation of the sanitation infrastructures (toilet and Decentralised Treatment Facility). Note that more documents are available on the SafiSan toolkit located in the WSTF website, see link below.

As an attempt to tackle the challenge of urban sanitation in Kenya and move towards the national and international sanitation goals, the Upscaling Basic Sanitation for the Urban Poor (UBSUP) programme was initiated in 2011 by the Water Sector Trust Fund (WSTF) whose mandate is to finance urban low income areas and implemented through regulated Water Service Providers (WSPs/utilities). The programme is jointly financed by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) and the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) with technical assistance from GIZ. UBSUP is aimed at improving access to household sanitation in the poor urban areas of Kenya by covering the entire sanitation service chain from toilet to treatment. The UBSUP approach is based on 3 key pillars: Social Marketing, Technology, and Business & Financing.
