It is estimated that half a million people die each year from diarrhea or acute respiratory infections which could have been prevented with timely and thorough hand hygiene. (WHO/UNICEF 2021). With PIWAAI’s intervention to provide Sanitation and Hygiene Training, the two days training which comprised of the meaningful participation of women and men, has stimulated improvement of sanitation and hygienic behaviors individually, and through them to their households and communities.
Through triggering activities and interactive discussions, the participants have taken away the notion of safe drinking water, sanitation and hygiene as crucial component to human health, and well-being. The training has promoted the understanding among the participants or water users that in addition to sufficient WASH facilities, it is also necessary to have true behavior change in the use of toilets, hygiene practices, and management of water supply schemes.
