The following activities are proposed to address the problems of open defecation and lack of Hygiene as well as Raising Awareness of COVID-19 in targeted villages:

Activity 1 : Awareness campaigns and training on WASH Behavior change will be the major focus of health and sanitation promotion activities. Campaigns will be designed and conducted on water and sanitation issues with the objective of addressing attitudes towards water, toilets and personal hygiene. A combination of two methodologies- Community-led Total Sanitation (CLTS) and Participatory Hygiene and Sanitation Transformation (PHAST) will be used.

While CLTS will use a number of participatory steps in order to persuade people to construct, further develop and sustainably and hygienically use latrines, PHAST will work mainly with pictures and have different per-defined sessions that will easily be done by trained community
members, for instance on transmission ways of major water-borne diseases, the sanitation ladder etc. Behavior change communication and promotion of sanitation will be central to the campaign, with focus on women who will be both promoters and beneficiaries. Schools will be
especially encouraged to unite in promoting safe water, environmental sanitation and personal hygiene. IEC techniques will be used as wall writing, posters, pamphlets, folk media etc. the project will also disseminate information about the provisions and norms of Government recommendations, general awareness.

Trainings on CLTS and PHAST- Trainings will be conducted on CLTS and PHAST
methods with all stakeholders as under:

Five day Training of Trainers (TOT) on Participatory Hygiene and Sanitation Transformation (PHAST): PHAST is tool developed specifically to promote a transformation in continuous hygiene behavior change and to improve sanitation.

It utilizes methods and materials that stimulate the participation of men, women and children. Field staff will be trained on that tool and later on they will train the community. Also The WASH Women, Committee will be trained on contamination risk and mitigation measures to combat COVID-19, they will be trained on how to make hand sanitizers and Face mask.
