Self-financing
Widely used, but often substandard performance. Could benefit enormously from proper support (advice, materials, innovation). Legalisation of property rights is key. Poorest need support. In Baroda (India) a 1999 study showed that households invested, on average, at least 70 USD in their own facilities such as rainwater tanks, underground tanks, lift pumps etc.

The World Bank estimated that half of the investments (totalling 1.8 billion USD) made in rural China between 1990 and 1995, were made by the users themselves.
(http://www.chinadevelopmentbrief.com/node/248). High potential because of growing access also of poorer groups to credits and remittances of overseas workers
Widely used but often poor quality because of weak management and supply chain and particularly because many toilet technologies are unaffordable for the very poor. Needs better access to micro-finance, information, advice and products. Better access to support / stronger private sector involvement would be very beneficial. Actual examples demonstrating success in leveraging household and community resources for sanitation can be found in countries as diverse as India, Lesotho, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Burkina Faso. (http://www.wsp.org/publications/af_finsan_mdg.pdf). Self-financing is increasingly becoming an issue as more and more externally supported programme pay for the software costs for demand creation but no longer for facilities. High potential because of growing access to funding
