The proposed Forum is a ‘home grown’ initiative that seeks to provide a sustainable approach to addressing the need for innovation in the water and sanitation sector not only in Nakuru but the region as well through private sector engagement. Technology and innovation have been prescribed as the strategy to deliver this aspiration as an enabler to efficient water use, which thereby reduces the strain on the utility companies in the country.

While climate change threatens clean and safe water, sanitation, and hygiene, it also offers an opportunity to rethink our approach to sustainable outcomes. 

By nurturing ‘home grown ‘solutions developed by local and regional innovators, the Forum seeks to provide a platform which show cases cutting edge innovations by private sector and seek to address WASH challenges that hinder uptake of the same.

This Forum will bring together various stakeholders and provided a platform for them to:

1. Gain an understanding of the policies, programmes, and interventions that the government has in place aimed at fostering positive action in sustainable water management.
2. Show case various innovations in the Eastern African Region market and the value they create within the water and sanitation sector.
3. Facilitate an exchange between the sources and seekers of capital by offering organizations the opportunity to present, in time-limited segments, their mission, their value proposition, and other relevant information.
4. Give presentations on the available sources of financing, and requirements.
5. Showcase their areas of intervention, for those not directly involved in seeking capital and financing.
6. Create partnerships geared towards sustainable water and sanitation management.
