Abstract:
School Sanitation and Hygiene Education (SSHE), is globally recognised as a key intervention to promote children’s right to health and clean environment and to influence a generational change in health promotion behaviour and attitudes. It is now known that not only the quality of teaching but also the environment, especially the availability of safe drinking water and sanitation together with good hygiene practices, influence learning.
To demonstrate this strategy SWASTHH, a joint initiative of the Government of India, IRC International Water and Sanitation Centre, the Netherlands, and UNICEF India has been implemented beginning in three states, Tamilnadu, Jharkhand and Karnataka. SWASTHH is an abbreviation of School Water and Sanitation towards Health and Hygiene and translates as health in Hindi. The project aims to promote sanitation and hygiene in and through primary schools to bring about behavioural change that will have a lasting impact. It also seeks to enable children (both girls and boys) to realise their right to basic education and the right to a healthy and safe learning environment. There has been, and will continue to be, a sharing of learning between SWASTHH and other SSHE projects underway in 64 districts of 20 states.
This book is meant for managers and trainers involved in SSHE programmes operating at different levels, such as state, district or block level. Although it was developed in the context of the School Water and Sanitation Towards Health and Hygiene (SWASTHH) programme in India, this book provides many useful guidelines and activities that apply to similar programmes elsewhere.
