Everyday Clean Project: Understanding one health hygiene practices in Kenya

Description

Description

Objectives:

1. Explore the everyday hygiene practices of people Sandpit Fellows live alongside animals within two contrasting one-health contexts in Kenya, to identify what could facilitate people to achieve better standards of hygiene and so improve their health and reduce their risk of infection;

2. Explore issues of age, gender and hygiene with women and men to identify potential barriers and opportunities for improving health;

3. Gain an insight into how people use and access soap and water in the context of changing economies, rainfall patterns and rapid urbanisation;

4. Critically evaluate the potential to use interdisciplinary teams to co-operate on data gathering and analysis to research hygiene and one health;

5. Assess whether the audio-visual intervention and storytelling approaches we develop and discuss at four community workshops helps to stimulate community thinking around hygiene practices that lead to improved health.
