Summary

Objective of the randomized controlled trial is to assess the impact of a digital intervention on hand hygiene of young children. Children in intervention kindergartens / elementary schools will see live instructions and feedback on their current hand washing activity while washing hands. We hypothesize that the digital intervention will improve hand hygiene practices of children in kindergarten / elementary school.
