Abstract
WASH education programs in schools can provide students with valuable information on proper WASH techniques and practices. This can influence their behavior and health, as they may use what they have learned in their daily WASH practices. There are a variety of factors that can play a part in how knowledge from the education program is adopted and utilized by students, such as the availability of resources, and engaging educational lessons. In this thesis, I will analyze existing WASH education programs conducted by large and small public health and non-profit organizations. I will also be examining existing literature. The research goal of this thesis is to determine if and how the implementation of school-based WASH education programs can be successful, and how they can influence elementary students’ health, knowledge, and attendance. I will also perform data analysis to create a baseline percentage of existing student WASH knowledge, using pre-program survey data from the Kaleidoscope Child Foundation WASH program.
