The Water and Sanitation Program's
(WSP) Global Scaling Up Handwashing Project (HWWS) is
testing an array of interventions to promote handwashing
with soap among mothers and children in rural Vietnam. These
interventions include mass media and interpersonal
communication through organizations such as the Vietnam
women's union. Of particular and growing interest is
the role of handwashing stations. In a household setting, a
handwashing station is a designated space bringing together
water and soap to wash hands, ideally in close proximity to
the latrine or the food preparation area. Handwashing
stations influence individuals' chance to perform a
behavior, regardless of their ability and motivation to do
so. While sinks in kitchens and bathrooms are the norm in
developed nations, they are not in most resource-scarce countries. |
