Nothing less than a holistic, integrated, multi-sector approach to the Lake’s environmental challenges is required, led by an ambitious vision. Lakewide Inclusive Sanitation for Lake Victoria is such a vision; to provide all people with safe sanitation, all the time. It is a vision which requires dynamism, a rejection of the status quo, and a hunger for change. It is a vision which requires an aware and engaged civil society; strong trusted institutions at local, national and regional levels; and enterprising service providers delivering safe sanitation services to customers.

Lake Victoria is in a strong position to achieve Lakewide Inclusive Sanitation due to an existing vibrant community of sanitation stakeholders. The Lake Victoria Pooptank belongs to the Lake's stakeholders, educating them, connecting them, and galvanising action around their vision for a clean Lake Victoria.
