Campaigning for better hygiene & Sanitation

To have the most effective hygiene and sanitation campaigns in its areas of operation; Kole Intellectual Forum is using a multifaceted, community-centric approach that can combine awareness-raising, the provision of necessary infrastructure (e.g., soap and water access), and community mobilization to ensure long-term behavioral change are observed. This campaign has been used through the underlying strategies;

Community-Led Initiatives: that is engaging the community in identifying and addressing their specific hygiene problems. Approaches like Community-Led Total Sanitation (CLTS) and Participatory Hygiene and Sanitation Transformation (PHAST) empower local members to take ownership of sanitation improvements, which is crucial for sustainability.
Education and Awareness: by also conducting educational workshops on topics such as hand washing techniques, safe food handling, and proper waste disposal methods. These sessions are made to be interactive, using methods like drama, role-plays, songs, and visual materials such as posters and cartoons, tailored to local cultural norms and literacy levels.
Infrastructure Provision: that is when education must be complemented by tangible resources. This includes improving access to: safe drinking water.; functional sanitation facilities (latrines); and hand washing stations with soap in homes, schools, and public places like markets and so on.
