What does sustainability mean for handwashing and hygiene? Handwashing/Hygiene Track, Sustainability Forum, July 2014. Overview by Track Lead: Julia Rosenbaum, USAID/WASHplus Project Senior Behavior Change Advisor
For the hygiene track, and this overview paper, we have limited the “hygiene” definition to include onlyhandwashing with soap (HWwS) and household drinking water treatment, safe handling and storage ( HWTS), rather than a broader treatment of hygiene which could include food hygiene, menstrual hygiene, compound hygiene including topics relevant to the emerging environmental enteropathy hypothesis such as safe disposal of animal feces.
