Summary: | The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)
include benchmarks related to children's health and
sanitation. Government and non-governmental organizations
working to meet these goals by 2015 continue to face many
challenges. Learning about effective approaches that result
in sustainable behavior change in sanitation and hygiene, in
particular handwashing with soap could strengthen efforts
and have a positive impact on the well- being of millions of
people, especially the poor. In December 2006, the Water and
Sanitation Program (WSP) launched the Global Scaling up
Handwashing Project to apply innovative promotional
approaches to behavior change to generate widespread and
sustained improvements in handwashing with soap at scale. |
