District-Level (WASH-NTD) Toolkits
Community Intervention
Health Workers & Volunteers
community health workers and volunteers are the most trusted sources of health information, and many people turn to them to receive important health information and advice. They often have the deepest reach within the community through house-to-house visits.
Local Leaders & Key Influencers
Religious and community leaders have the platform to spread key health messages and increase their acceptability and practice. Our trainings promote a transformational leadership approach that inspires change in individuals and communities.
School Intervention
Early Childhood Education
Young children are especially vulnerable to hygiene-related infections. This period of life is thus crucial for adopting healthy behaviors, which can then significantly improve a person’s long-term health by preventing diseases such as trachoma.
Primary School Education
School-aged children are important messengers of change. Not only can they spread the health messages to their family and friends, they can lead on projects to improve WASH conditions in their schools.
