Summary

The purpose of this study is to measure whether a combined water, sanitation, and hygiene intervention leads to improved health of children who did not receive the intervention themselves and who live within a close vicinity of intervention recipients.

Conditions

  • Helminthiasis
  • Diarrhea
  • Respiratory Infection

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Combined water, sanitation, and hygiene

Water: Free chlorine tablets (Aquatabs; NaDCC) and safe storage vessel to treat and store drinking water. Sanitation: Free child potties, sani-scoop hoes to remove feces from household, and latrine upgrades to a dual pit latrine for all households in study compounds. Handwashing: Handwashing stations including soapy water bottles and detergent soap. Local promoters visit study compounds at least monthly to deliver behavior change messages that focus on (1) treating drinking water for children \< 36 months of age, (2) use of latrines for defecation and the removal of human and animal feces from the compound, and (3) handwashing with soap at critical times around food preparation, defecation, and contact with feces.
