from a land-locked country to a land-linked country. Rural water supply, sanitation, health and hygiene promotion are
principal focus areas for Lao PDR for her National Growth and Poverty Eradication Strategy. The National Centre for
Environmental Health and Water Supply (commonly known as Nam Saat) is responsible for the rural water supply and
sanitation (RWSS) sector in Lao PDR, which includes facilitating for planning and implementation of the RWSS programme.
Many major steps have been taken to put forward the agenda. However, many more steps need to be taken. This paper
briefly highlights the background of health and hygiene promotional activities in Lao PDR, including lessons learned on
new ways of looking into health and hygiene promotional activities that have been undertaken in Lao PDR.
