research “Sustainability of hygiene behavioural change”
carried out in six countries, with a special focus on the study
conducted in Kenya and its subsequent results. The paper
gives an overview of those aspects that contribute to the
implementation of hygiene promotion interventions that
lead to sustainable changes in hygiene behaviours. It also
considers the implications for the design of effective approaches.
