Despite citywide inclusive sanitation (CWIS) being a well conceived, sector-specific policy concept, it often struggles due to the linear mindset of development agencies. Based on various research methods, this study examined challenges in the operationalization of CWIS in Nakuru County, Kenya. The findings suggest that CWIS faces challenges from different service regimes that have multiple providers, different institutional arrangements, and diverse technologies. This study calls for a shift in the mindset of development agencies from linear to spherical thinking in sanitation governance.
