Sustaining and scaling school water, sanitation, and hygiene plus community impact : a brochure

There are many factors needed to bring school WASH improvements to all schools in Kenya in a sustainable manner. In addition to the commitment of head teachers, teachers, parents, community leaders, students, and non‐governmental actors, SWASH+ believes these three factors are critical: an adequate budget for WASH at the school level; a viable government‐led integrated monitoring system for school WASH; knowledge promotion and behavior change through targeting school head teachers and school management committees as primary agents of change in Kenyan primary schools. Achieving success in school WASH is a challenge that calls for collective effort to help ensure that school is a rewarding experience for Kenya’s children. [authors abstract]
