Over five years of implementation from 1999–2004, EHP supported diverse activities to improve hygiene outcomes in more than 19 countries. In each setting, EHP’s work included diverse mixes of: hygiene promotion; “hardware” such as community water supply; and other “software” such as policy support and capacity building. From these activities, EHP has identified fourteen lessons learned in hygiene improvement. Hygiene Improvement is defined as a comprehensive approach to prevent childhood diarrhea through a focus on improving key hygiene behaviors, especially ensuring safe household drinking water, proper hand hygiene, and effective use of sanitation. The lessons presented in this report are to assist all those involved in health-focused water supply and sanitation program design, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation.
The lessons learned have been organized under four categories: programmatic context; designing and implementing hygiene promotion activities; creating an enabling environment and monitoring and evaluation
