Abstract:
This systematic review shows which promotional approaches are effective in changing handwashing and sanitation behaviour and which implementation factors affect the success or failure of such interventions.
Diarrhoeal diseases are very common causes of death in low- and middle-income countries.
Improved sanitation and hygiene reduce diarrhoea, but adoption remains a challenge.
This review assesses the evidence for two questions: (1) how effective are different
approaches to promote handwashing and sanitation behaviour change; and (2) what factors
influence the implementation of these approaches?
