Classic Intervention

"The standard classic approach will implement a total of 20 community health club sessions delivered through weekly education programs in the target communities as per the training manual. Community health workers (CHW) will receive careful training in the delivery of the CBEHPP instruction. High quality instructional materials (in color) will be used. Club members will each receive a membership card to be used to track attendance and compliance. Finally model home competitions and a graduation ceremony will be held. Monitoring of the clubs will be conducted by community health workers using mobile phones."

BEHAVIORAL

Minimum Intervention

"The lite trial arm will only implement 8 sessions covering all the WASH topics. It will be facilitated by CHWs receiving minimal training and using black/white photocopies of instructional materials. Members will not be issued with membership cards and will not have a graduation ceremony or home garden competitions. Minimal monitoring of this arm will be carried out by environmental health officers."
