Abstract
The purpose of this handbook is to describe tools and methods that a community, NGO, or local government can use to understand the relationship that community members have with each other and with water and their environment; to understand how these relationships impact health; how and why water is used in the community; how sanitation and hygiene practices are viewed; and how changes could be made. The toolkit described in this handbook can be used to provide insight into community water and health challenges as a first step to identifying and prioritising ways to improve WaSH and wellbeing within a framework of community values, traditions, and culture.
There are two files; the larger one includes additional appendices.
