Participatory Hygiene and Sanitation Transformation

This approach is a participatory learning methodology that seeks to help communities improve hygiene behaviours, reduce diarrhoeal disease and encourage effective community management of water and sanitation services. It aims at empowering communities to improve hygiene behaviours, preventing diarrhoeal diseases, and encouraging community-management of water and sanitation facilities. It uses a participatory approach to community learning and planning that follows a seven step framework. The approach was introduced by the World Health Organisation.
