An effective and sustainable financing strategy is essential to ensure a programme can deliver at scale. As part of PSUP’s capacity-building agenda, the objective of this course is to introduce stakeholders to the process of developing a financing strategy and to show how it can help in effectively implementing a city-wide slum upgrading strategy. This is fundamental to the successful leveraging of national and international funds, in addition to community and private sector contributions.
This course covers:
• What financing strategies are
• Why financing strategies are essential for slum-upgrading at scale
• What principles underpin a financing strategy for slum-upgrading and
• How these principles can form the building blocks of an effective and sustainable financing strategy (with case studies).
