any water, sanitation, or hygiene (WASH) initiative. Through this workshop, participants will

changing their behaviours of WASH practices.
This workshop has 3 modules: Foundation, Technical, and Practical. The first and last modules
are required for the workshop, but the Technical module is flexible and created by choosing
any of the lessons you wish to include related to WASH. The workshop can be anywhere
from 3 to 5 days long.
The workshop begins with an exploration of the importance of WASH, its benefits, and the
challenges of achieving behaviour change. It then covers the more technical aspects of
WASH; with focus on household water treatment and safe storage, latrines, various hygiene
issues, and gender. The last module is very practical and outlines the steps and strategies for
effectively working with households and community members.
