Abstract:
IntroductionHelicobacter pyloriinfection rates are high in China and worldwide, and maintaining good hygiene is effective in preventingH. pyloriinfection. Childhood is a critical stage for developing good hygiene practices. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to explore whether a comprehensive hygiene intervention can preventH. pyloriinfection in primary schools in China.Methods and analysisThe School-based Hygiene Intervention to PreventHelicObacter Pyloriinfection among childrEn study is a cluster-randomised controlled trial, which will include approximately 2400 children in grades 2–4 from 60 classes in 10 primary schools of Linqu County, Shandong Province. Schools will be randomly assigned (1:1) via a computer-generated list, to receive either comprehensive hygiene intervention (intervention) or the usual health education lessons (control), with stratification by area (urban or rural). The interventions will include the following: (1) Children’s education: lessons and cartoon books designed to provide basic knowledge about hygiene,H. pylori, hand hygiene, diet and oral hygiene will be provided to children; (2) Caregiver’s education: children will be empowered to share hygiene-related knowledge with their caregivers as homework; caregivers will be also invited to the school for hygiene lessons; (3) School hygiene promotion: suggestions will be provided for improving the hygienic environment. Children in control schools will receive usual health education lessons according to the arrangements of each school. The primary outcome is the prevalence and incidence ofH. pyloriinfection among children at 1-year follow-up. The secondary outcomes areH. pyloriand hygiene knowledge, family eating customs and hygiene practices among children and their caregivers, as well as school absences owing to diarrhoea. Additionally, growth in children is set as an exploratory outcome. General linear mixed models will be used to analyse differences between the intervention and control schools.Ethics and disseminationEthics approval has been obtained from the Institution Review Board of Tsinghua University (No: 20220020). Written informed consent will be obtained from each child and one of their caregivers. The findings of this study will be actively disseminated through scientific publications and conference presentations.Trial registration numberChiCTR2200056191.

Abstract:
ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate schools’ preparedness for menstrual hygiene management in the West Gonja Municipality of Ghana.DesignThis was a cross-sectional study with a mixed-methods approach.SettingJunior high schools in the West Gonja Municipality.ParticipantsTwenty-six schools were randomly selected, and 13 schoolgirls were purposively chosen for qualitative interviews.Analysis of dataThe quantitative and qualitative data were analysed using Microsoft Excel and thematic content analysis, respectively. The transcriptions were printed out and read repeatedly to identify similar wordings, phrases, concept and meanings.OutcomesPresence of menstrual hygiene facilities in basic schools.ResultsMajority (69.2%) of the schools were poorly prepared towards menstrual hygiene management. Only 38.5% schools had water, most schools (61.5%) did not have waste bins, 30.8% of the schools had designated places for changing of menstrual materials. No school had menstrual hygiene materials available for emergency use. All participants acknowledged inadequate hygiene facilities in their schools. During menses, adolescent girls often absent themselves from school. Girls tend to be very inactive during their menstrual period for fear of embracement from their male counterparts. The following themes were obtained ‘unavailability of hygiene material’, ‘involvement in class during menses’ and ‘absence from school’.ConclusionSchools in West Gonja Municipality have inadequate menstrual hygiene management facilities that could be a major setback to the health and educational attainment of young girls. The Ministry of Sanitation and Water Resources should expand menstrual hygiene and its management to reach the West Gonja Municipality as part of the National Sanitation and Hygiene Strategy.

Abstract:
Adolescent girls’ capacity to lead healthy lives and perform well in school has been hampered by their lack of awareness about menstruation and the requirements for its hygienic management. Lack of enabling infrastructure, improper menstrual supplies, and limited socioeconomic support for good menstrual health and cleanliness are characteristics of schools in Africa South of the Sahara. We evaluated school-age girls’ knowledge of menstrual hygiene and identified bottlenecks that could affect policy and programming for menstrual health and hygiene. A school-based cross-sectional study involved 8,012 adolescent school girls in the age group of 11–18 years (mean age = 14.9 years). The study evaluated students’ knowledge of menstrual health and hygiene (MHH) from the viewpoints of schools and communities using a combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data was collected using self-administered surveys, focus group discussions, in-depth interviews, and site observations. Girls’ older age (AOR = 1.62, P 0.001), having a female guardian (AOR = 1.39: P = 001), and having a parent in a formal job (AOR = 1.03: P 0.023) were positively associated with Menstrual health and Hygiene Knowledge. MHH knowledge levels varied significantly between girls attending government (53.3) and non-government schools (50.5%, P = 0.0001), although they were comparable for girls attending rural and urban schools. Only 21% of the study’s schools had at least one instructor who had received training in MHH instruction for students. We have established that the majority of adolescent girls in schools have inadequate knowledge on menstrual health and hygiene, and that school teachers lack the skills to prepare and support young adolescents as they transition into puberty. Concerted actions aimed at building supportive policy are paramount, for school-aged teenagers to learn about and reap the long-term advantages of good menstrual health practices.

Abstract:
Good menstrual hygiene management in schools means that schoolgirls have access to adequate school toilets that meet criteria for basic sanitation and hygiene service, but also that they have basic knowledge about menstrual hygiene. The aim of this work is to assess sanitation and hygiene conditions for adequate menstrual hygiene management in rural schools in the Šumadija and Pomoravlje districts. The study was conducted on the territory of the rural areas of Šumadija and Pomoravlje districts in 2016. It encompassed 238 schools, of which 108 in Šumadija and 130 in Pomoravlje district. To assess sanitation and hygiene conditions for adequate menstrual hygiene management, a questionnaire was created, with questions related to: existence of toilets at schools and whether they are functional, accessible, single-sex, and ensure privacy, to provision of soap and toilet paper, handwashing facilities, bins with a lid in toilet cubicles for schoolgirls, and to provision of menstrual hygiene education. This research showed that a high percentage of school toilets in rural areas meet the basic service criteria (more than 90% for sanitation and about 85% for hygiene) in respect of toilet type and whether toilets are single-sex, usable, and with functional handwashing facilities. However, the obstacles to reaching the criteria for advanced service level are the insufficient provision of facilities for the disposal of menstrual products in toilet cubicles (76.9%), as well as the absence of menstrual hygiene education in 50% of schools. The research indicated the need to improve sanitation and hygiene conditions in order to reach advanced service level that would include better menstrual hygiene management in rural schools in Serbia. Also, a continued research should be focused on the role of social and economic aspects concerning schoolgirls and their families in the attainment of adequate menstrual hygiene.

Abstract:
Personal hygiene comes from the Greek words meaning individual, and cleanliness, meaning health. Personal hygiene is taking care of your body to improve your physical and mental health. Clean and healthy living behavior is behavior done by the community to take care of their own health and play an active role in maintaining the cleanliness and health of the environment. Poor personal hygiene can cause various diseases such as diarrhea, tooth decay, and asthma. The purpose of this study is to find out the effect of personal hygiene on school health services. The research design used is descriptive observation with a qualitative approach. Sampling is done using the probability sampling method. The survey method is a questionnaire. This data was analyzed using chi-square statistical analysis. The results of this study indicate that there is an influence between knowledge and personal hygiene with a P value of 0.004. There is an Influence of Attitude with Personal Hygiee at SMK Ganda Husada Tebing Tinggi with a P value of 0.001. There is an influence of Educator Support with Personal Hygiene with P value of 0.003. There is an influence of family support with personal hygiene with a P value of 0.003. There is an influence of PHBS Facilities with Personal Hygiene with a P value of 0.004. In schools, it is recommended that personal hygiene education be taught more in accordance with the school curriculum. Schools can collaborate with local start-ups through the UKS program and conduct regular personal hygiene sessions

Abstract:
Appropriate hand washing is an effective and cost-effective means of reducing the spread of infectious illness. It is therefore important to encourage and sustain good hygiene habits in the young, who are often implicated in the spread of common infections. Educational interventions are often used to promote hand washing in the school setting, however current evidence on the extent to which such interventions produce behaviour change is mixed, and in general of poor quality. The Hand Washing Trial, a well-designed pragmatic cluster randomised controlled trial, sought to test the effectiveness of an educational resource promoting hand washing in primary schools. Effectiveness of the Hands up for Max!resource was evaluated using pupil and staff absence as a proxy measure for spread of infection. 178 schools in the South West of England were recruited to the trial and randomised to receive Hands up for Max! or continue as usual. Intervention schools received the resource in the autumn 2009 and all schools were followed up until summer 2010. 24 schools also took part in a sub-study exploring absence related specifically to infectious illness captured in absence forms, and hand hygiene knowledge, attitudes, and behaviour recorded in a self-reported questionnaire developed and validated within this doctorate. The trial findings suggest that the Hands up for Max! resource was not effective at reducing pupil or staff absence, or the spread of common infections such as respiratory and gastrointestinal illnesses. After psychometric testing and exploratory factor analysis three factors were identified within the developed questionnaire relating to (i) when, how and why hand washing is engaged in (ii) role modelling of hand washing and (iii) facilitators and barriers to hand washing. A comparison of scores for these three factors between trial arms suggested that whilst there was no effect on absence, pupils in intervention schools observed and promoted hand washing behaviour more, than control schools. Insights from a process evaluation, embedded in the trial, suggested that a more holistic approach to hand washing behaviour change is needed addressing standards of facilities, time, and social norms, alongside health education. Appropriate hand hygiene in schools is an important public health issue, but encouraging and sustaining such behaviour remains a challenge. Such a challenge may be best met with comprehensive thinking about the appropriate messages to"impart and how to facilitate such messages being acted upon.

Abstract:
Currently, many developing countries are experiencing rising prevalences of caries associated with changes in lifestyle and living conditions. Objectives: To describe the hygiene, eating habits, and oral health status of Nepalese children. Materials and Methods: A stratifiedsample of 231 children 5–7, 11–13, and 15–16 years of age (53% boys, 47% girls) who attended public high schools in the rural area of the Lalitpur District, Nepal was selected. The study was a field study combining a clinical examination (plaque, gingivitis, calculus, and caries) and a questionnaire. The questions concerned sanitary conditions, health support, personal hygiene, tooth cleaning, and eating habits. Results: During the school day, half of the children ate nothing at all. General personal hygiene was associated with tooth-cleaning frequency.Four out of five children in the entire sample cleaned their teeth once/day or more, using their own toothbrush. The use of fluoride toothpaste was rare.More frequent tooth cleaning and lower plaque indices were seen among girls and older children. More plaque was found on the occlusal surfaces of erupting permanent molars than on fully occluded permanent molars. Most children had a low prevalence of manifest caries in the primary and the permanent dentitions. However, every fifth 5–7-yr-old had manifest caries in three or more primary teeth. The occlusal surfaces of molars accounted for almost all registered caries in both dentitions. Conclusion: Although the prevalence of manifest caries was low, the low level of preventive activities may cause an increase in the prevalence of caries, as in other developing countries. The presumed risk scenario needs to be met by comprehensive and systematic health promotion and preventive measures.
Sammanfattning: I många utvecklingsländer sker förändringar av livsstil och levnadsförhållanden med samtidig ökad förekomst av karies. Mål: Att beskriva hygien, matvanor och munhälsa hos nepalesiska barn. Material och Metod: Ett stratifierat urval av 231 barn, som i åldrarna 5-7, 11-13 och 15-16 år (53% pojkar, 47% flickor), elever i statliga grundskolor på landsbygden, Lalitpur distriktet Nepal, användes. Studien utformades som en fältstudie med klinisk undersökning (plack, gingivit, tandsten och karies) kombinerad med en enkätstudie. Frågorna rörde sanitära förhållanden, hälsostöd från hemmet, personlig hygien, tandrengörings- och matvanor. Resultat: Under skoldagen åt hälften av barnen ingenting alls. Allmän personlig hygien var associerad med tandrengörings frekvens. Av alla barn, som användande sin egen tandborste, borstade fyra av fem, en gång om dagen eller mer. Äldre barn och flickor rengjorde tänderna oftare och hade ett lägre plackindex. Mer plack fanns på erupterande molarers occlusalytor jämfört med molarer i full ocklusion. De flesta barnen hade en låg frekvens manifest karies i primära och permanenta bettet. Dock hade en femtedel av 5-7 åringarna tre eller fler manifesta kariesangrepp i primära bettet. Ocklusal karies på molarerna utgjorde nästan all registrerad karies i båda dentitionerna. Slutsats: Låg frekvens av manifest karies, men en låg grad av förebyggande aktiviteter, kan medföra en ökad kariesfrekvens liknande den i andra utvecklingsländer. Den förmodande risken måste bemötas med behovsinriktade och systematiska hälsobefrämjande och preventiva åtgärder.

Abstract:
The purposes of this study were: (1) to study the conditions that influenced the construction of early rural schoolhouses in Indiana, (2) to examine how emerging concerns for sanitation and student health surfaced from the construction of early rural schoolhouses, and (3) to provide a data base for individuals who desire to do further research on school buildings and their historic preservation. The research concentrated on the period of 1875 to .1915. Special attention was given to conditions that led to the passage of the Sanitary Schoolhouse Act of 1911.Results revealed that early schoolhouses often were constructed as little more than shelters. Virtually no consideration was given to either educational processes or the health and safety of occupants. As a result, water and other design and care of water and sewage systems resulted insanitary factors became major concerns. The inadequate serious health concerns for students and teachers. These concerns contributed to the passage of laws that eventually led to: (1) the abandonment of early rural schoolhouses, and (2) the construction of more sophisticated structures often designed by professional architects.This study also revealed that some of those early schoolhouses that survived have been converted to residential, business, or civic purposes. Photographs of such buildings in Boone, Hamilton, Hancock, Hendricks, Henry, Madison, and Tipton counties in Indiana are included in the thesis. They provide evidence that preservation is a means with which these buildings can continue to serve a useful existence.There is historical value in understanding conditions that led to the rise and fall of early rural school buildings. Collectively, data about the construction and sanitary conditions provide insights into rural culture, expand an appreciation of the uniqueness of design for these buildings, and enhance the importance and desirability of preserving these structures. The net product of this thesis is to provide a view of the construction of buildings in central Indiana of this period.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the social factors that affect the acceptability of the Enviro Loo sanitation technology in schools. The study adopted the anti-positivism theory. Phenomenology school of thought was used as one of the three schools of thoughts as marked under Anti-positivism. The qualitative research method had its foothold in the fact that social factors, as a human activity, occurs in a particular natural and social environment. Utilising the qualitative research design, the researcher focused on describing and understanding the social factors that influence the acceptability of the Enviro Loo sanitation technology at schools. The study utilised an interview guide to collect data. The advantage of this is that it allowed the researcher to probe and ask for clarification of some answers as given by the respondents The population of this study comprised 35 secondary schools in Limpopo Province that benefited from the implementation of the Enviro Loo sanitation technology system during the 2010/11 financial years. Non-probability sampling was used. The method used to select the schools was convenience sampling as a non-probability sampling technique where subjects are selected because of their convenient accessibility and proximity to the researcher. This is because the researcher was bound by time, money and workforce and because of these limitations, it was almost impossible to randomly sample the entire population. Three sets of focus groups were used as sample, namely; the Provincial Sanitation Task Team (PSTT), School Governing Body (SGB) and Leaner’s Representative Council (LRC). All groups were gender balanced and members participated voluntarily. Nvivo was utilised to analyse data. The audio recordings from the digital voice recorder were transcribed, translated into English, typed into word and thematic analysis was used.

Este estudo trata dos internatos na sociedade brasileira e, especialmente, sergipana, tomando como objeto os colégios-internatos, no período que se estende de 1840 a 1950. A pesquisa, utilizando abordagens culturais da história social, destaca os escolares na condição de internos (pensionistas), os espaços de internamento, as práticas culturais, os debates e as funções sociais dos internatos. A operação historiográfica consistiu em separar, reunir e transformar em documentos históricos as informações coletadas, efetuando os cruzamentos entre essas informações e/ou indícios encontrados. Para responder aos questionamentos propostos foram utilizadas fontes diversas, como relatórios, teses doutorais, almanaques, revistas, prospectos e estatutos de colégios, livros de viajantes, romances, entre outras. O internato brasileiro não ficou imune a críticas. Entre os problemas apontados pelos intelectuais, as condições físicas e de higiene do internato, especialmente os dormitórios, ocupavam um lugar de destaque. Os médicos, preocupados com questões higienistas, em suas teses de doutoramento do século XIX e início do século XX, alertavam para as insalubridades físicas e moral dos internatos e apresentavam propostas para o funcionamento higiênico destes. Os internatos foram defendidos e até utilizados na instrução pública, principalmente visando ao desenvolvimento do ensino secundário. Contudo, foi na instrução particular onde os internatos se desenvolveram utilizados por famílias ricas e médias da população para promover a instrução de seus filhos. Nos internatos, os estudantes encontravam cama, comida (pensionato) e instrução (aulas, repetições, exercícios suplementares e direção dos estudos). No século XIX, existiam pequenos internatos constituídos como uma empresa familiar e grandes internatos, instalados em casas residenciais adaptadas, em sobrados ou em prédios planejados para servirem como colégios-internatos, com vastos cômodos capazes de acomodar um grande número de pensionistas. Em Sergipe, no século XX, a história dos internatos é marcada pela permanência de pequenos internatos de organização ―familiar‖ e pelo surgimento de colégios-internatos instalados em prédios adaptados ou em edifícios-internatos. Enfim, a educação dispensada nos internatos, apesar das críticas desfavoráveis, serviu como estratégia educativa de famílias ricas e classes médias e estabeleceu distinção a esses segmentos sociais por meio de constante formação de princípios culturais que contribuíram para a perpetuação de privilégios de classe. This study is about boarding schools in Brazilian society and especially, sergipana society, taking as an object the boarding schools, from 1840 to 1950. The research which uses cultural approaches of social history emphasizes the scholars under the condition of resident students (pensioner), the spaces in boarding schools, the cultural practices, the debates and the boarding school students‘ social jobs. The historical operation consisted of separating, organizing and transforming the collected information into historical documents, and crosschecking such information with other facts found. As to answer the proposed questions several sources were used like reports, doctors‘ dissertations, almanacs, magazines, prospects, schools‘ internal rules, travelers‘ books, novels, among others. The Brazilian boarding school system was also criticized. Among the problems mentioned by intellectuals, the boarding school‘s physical and hygiene conditions, especially the dormitories were on spot. The doctors, worried about hygiene aspects, in their doctorate dissertations from XIX century and beginning of XX century, used to mention the resident students‘ physical and moral hazards and they used to propose suggestions for a better hygienic environment. The resident students were defended as well as used in public instruction, mainly aiming at developing the secondary schools teaching. However, it was in private instruction where resident students developed themselves used by rich and middle-class families‘ population to promote their children‘s education. In the boarding schools, the scholars used to have accommodation, food and instruction (classes, repetitions, supplementary exercises and instructions on how to study). In the XIX century, there were small boarding houses like a family company and big boarding schools, located in adapted houses, old houses or buildings planned to be used like boarding schools with a lot of rooms which could house a great number of pensioners. In Sergipe, in the XX century, the boarding houses‘ history is characterized by the existence of small family boarding houses and by the appearance of boarding schools located in adapted buildings or in boarding school buildings. So, education given to boarding schools students, despite the unfavorable criticism, served like an educational strategy of rich and middle-class families and established a distinction to such social groups through constant development of cultural principles which contributed to the class privileges perpetuation.

Abstract:
One of the key responses to the HIV/AIDS crisis has been the provision of School- based HIV/AIDS education, to try and improve teenagers’ ability to make wise and sensible decisions regarding their behaviours. The interventions have been premised on links between education and behaviour, the underlying assumption being that teaching young people how to protect themselves from HIV can lead to a reduction in risk behaviour and hence a reduction in HIV incidence (UNAIDS, 1997). An important part of this process has been the development of an education sector policy on HIV and AIDS, aimed at implementing and effecting, among others, the policy goal of Prevention. This study, with the use of a systems theory as a theoretical framework, examines the policy, provision and practice of HIV/AIDS education in secondary schools in Kenya with the view to informing policy and providing options for re-designing and scaling up (if necessary) the HIV/AIDS program. A methodology combining literature review, semi- structured interviews and a school survey was adopted. The school survey covered students, teachers and Head teachers; while the semi structured interviews covered policy makers. Results revealed that there are discordances between national HIV/AIDS policy rhetoric and school realities. There is a general failure of schools to implement the type of detailed HIV/AIDS policy described despite the fact that the demand is high. Although there are merits that the study did not cover a wide enough population to warrant the generalizations it makes, the research findings and recommendations that do exist from previous investigations largely confirm rather than refute these results.

Abstract:
AbstractUnsafe drinking water, poor sanitation, and inadequate hygiene are key contributors to deteriorating child health in low- and middle-income countries. This chapter focuses on (1) evaluating child health and nutritional status; (2) clarifying the factors contributing to undernutrition and diarrhea prevalence by focusing on water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH); and (3) evaluating fecal contamination and children’s hand hygiene. The study was conducted at a preschool and two elementary schools in densely populated Bandung, Indonesia, targeting children and their caretakers, using anthropometric measurements, handwashing observation, hand bacteria testing, and questionnaires. The results showed that not using a towel after handwashing was significantly associated with increased risk of stunting. Children from households using tap water instead of tank water as drinking water suffered from increased risk of stunting and thinness. Moreover, children from households using open containers for water storage were associated with increased risk of diarrhea. Most children (98.7%) had hand fecal contamination, with girls having significantly less Escherichia coli (E. coli) than boys. E. coli counts were negatively correlated with handwashing technique, handwashing with soap, and a developed WASH index. The findings suggest that successful home drinking water management and proper personal hygiene practices are important for attaining better child health.

Abstract:
Background: The implementation of menstrual hygiene management (MHM) for students in schools in the context of developing countries still faces many multifactorial obstacles. This scoping review aims to reveal various experiences of students related to the implementation of menstrual hygiene management in schools. Subjects and Method: This was a scoping review using the framework from Arksey and O’Malley. This review was conducted by searching for articles published from 2009 to 2019 from databases including PubMed, EBSCO, Science Direct, Willey and Google Scholar databases. The Inclusion criteria were articles in English, primary research and articles in peer review journals. The data were reported by PRISMA flow diagram. Results: There were 9 articles selected from 263 articles that went through the identification process. It was found that students’ experiences in implementing menstrual hygiene management in school to several important points, namely the lack of access to information about menstrual hygiene management in schools, poor implementation related to the lack of school sanitation infrastructure, social, economic, and cultural problems. Conclusion: Many challenges faced by students in fulfilling their menstrual health rights in schools have resulted in various bad experiences for school students in developing countries.

Abstract:
Background: Consumption of street food in school has an impact on children’s health, especially their nutritional status. Children in the Anak Dalam Tribe (SAD) are mostly malnourished and short. The remote indigenous community (Suku Anak Dalam) in Nyogan Village has undergone a social transition for 15 years since being granted permanent settlement by the Government. Many changes have occurred as well as consumption patterns. This study aims to determine the pattern of consumption of street food and beverages in schools for SAD children in Nyogan Village. Subjects and Method: This was a qualitative study with a phenomenological design conducted in Nyogan Village, Muaro Jambi Regency. Several information was selected for this study included: children, parents, community leaders or traditional leaders, school principals, teachers, neighbourhood leader, village heads, village midwives and public health center officer. The inclusion criteria were consumption pattern of food and drink snacks for SAD children at school. The data were collected by in-depth interview and analyzed using Miles and Hubberman’s model. Results: Children with SAD who go to elementary school in trans social areas in Nyogan Village like food and drink snacks. The most commonly consumed snack foods are sausages, sticky and grilled meatballs, thousand fried rice, candy, rice cake. At the same time, the most widely consumed snack drinks are present ice, juice jacket, glass tea, okky jelly drink, and ice cream. The reason is that only these types of food and beverages are available and cheap. SAD children in Nyogan Village rarely eat local snacks, such as fried sweet potatoes, that used to be consumed. There are concerns regarding the safety of snack foods and drinks suspected of having “chemical content” that is harmful to children health in these snacks. The cleanliness of the place of snacks and personal hygiene of food handlers are factors related to food and beverage snacks’ health. The Health Officer or public health center never conducts counseling on snack foods’ safety and is not regularly supervised. Conclusion: The consumption pattern of food and drink snacks for children with SAD in trans-social areas has changed. They consume snacks that are sold around the school. However, these foods and drinks are not guaranteed safety. Education and supervision are needed for food vendors or handlers in schools so that SAD children improve their health.

Abstract:
In the context of the current COVID-19 pandemic that also affected Romania, the population faced a series of economic and social problems caused by the reduction of the activity of economic agents and public institutions, the reorganization of the activity of health services, social assistance and of education. Rural life for children in Romania has worsened considerably during the pandemic, according to research conducted by World Vision Romania between May 10 and June 27, 2020. Most rural parents did not work during this period, and almost half of them, failed to provide at all or partially provided access to education, food, medicine and hygiene products. The closure of schools caused by COVID-19 not only affected learning, but also other social issues such as mental health, violence or pronounced social inequalities. One category affected by the COVID-19 pandemic is children in rural areas, where access to the Internet and, in particular, access to broadband is more limited than in urban areas.

Abstract:
Health programmes are developed to prevent disease or manage the treatment process. They should be universal enough to target the largest possible group while taking into account the individual predispositions of the recipients. Important factors influencing the scope and design of health programs are also the financial capacity and availability of personnel to implement them. Thus, in addition to the experience of planners, the use of advanced decision support tools is necessary. Hybrid simulation modelling, which refers to the combination of two or more simulation approaches, is widely used to help manage various aspects of health care, including health programmes. The article is a part of a larger study in the area of using simulation modelling to support the planning of dental caries prevention programmes in primary schools in Poland. The paper focusses on one component, which are educational talks. Our goal is to provide a framework for developing simulation models to determine the potential impact of educational talks on children's oral health attitudes towards oral hygiene. The results of the experiments showed that oral health education may results in positive attitudes at the end of primary education in children.

Abstract:
Micronutrient malnutrition (hidden hunger) is still a major problem in Kenya and other developing countries, particularly among school-age children who are rarely targeted by nutrition interventions. Studies indicate that food-based nutrition education (FBNE) interventions are effective in improving the adoption of recommended nutrition practices among school-age children. However, there is little evidence of the effectiveness of such interventions in developing countries such as Kenya. This study aimed to assess the effects of a FBNE intervention on nutrition Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices (KAP) and food use among grade six children in Ndhiwa Sub-County, Homa-Bay County, Kenya. A pre-post quasi-experimental design with intervention and control groups was used and was conducted from January to March 2021. The intervention was implemented using a FBNE curriculum developed using the health belief model constructs and was piloted with grade six Kenyan school children in 2 schools in Ndhiwa, Kenya. Participants in both the intervention and comparison groups were highly knowledgeable on handwashing prior to the intervention which was attributed to hygiene campaigns during COVID-19; and this remained similar postintervention p=0.22 and p=0.13, respectively. After the intervention, the intervention group had higher positive attitudes regarding handwashing (p=0.01) and practiced more handwashing (p=0.03) than the comparison group. Knowledge scores (p=0.0001), attitudes scores (p=0.0001), barriers scores (p=0.002) and practices scores (p=0.002) related to iron and zinc were significantly higher in the intervention than in the comparison group. Similarly, knowledge scores (p=0.004), attitudes scores (p=0.002) and practices scores (p=0.0001) related to Vitamin C and β carotene were also higher in the intervention group than in the comparison group. In addition, kitchen gardening knowledge (p=0.01) and attitudes (p=0.01) increased significantly in the intervention group relative to the comparison group. Food-based nutrition intervention is effective on nutrition KAP of the school children and more opportunities within and outside the formal curriculum should be explored to reach the children with more context-based information for positive behaviour change to end micronutrient deficiencies among adolescents. Longitudinal studies to investigate the long-term effects of this food-based intervention on nutrition KAP, and dietary behaviour change and associations with micronutrient status. Key words: Food-based Nutrition Education, Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices (KAP), School-age Children, Kenya.

Abstract:
We present here the design and analysis of a cost-effective soap dispenser that prevents bar soap theft in schools in developing countries. The intended region of deployment is within Ethiopia and surrounding areas. Lack of public hygiene is attributed to 1.4 million global deaths annually due to preventable diarrheal diseases. Using soap while washing hands is estimated to decreases death due to diarrheal diseases by half. Theft of soap from public wash stations, such as those found in schools, is believed to contribute to the spread of diarrheal diseases. Currently there exists no adequate cost-effective solutions to protect bar soap from theft although there appears to be a demand and there is a need for such a device. An undergraduate student mechanical design team in a sophomore design course at Purdue University was tasked with developing a soap dispenser that prevents theft of bar soap. The project prompt was provided by Purdue Global Engineering Programs’ Innovation to International Development (I2D) Lab. Students were instructed to complete the first step (Product Concept) of the Lean Design for the Developing World (LDW) method to develop a Minimum Viable Product (MVP). The team then completed a retrospective analysis of the MVP using the Customer Needs Cultural Risk Indicator (CNCRI) method to determine potential shortcomings that may be identified in the second step (Validated Learning) of the LDW method. Several customer needs and their component and design solutions that need close monitoring during the second step of the LDW method were identified. The highest risk customer needs included: culturally appropriate design, aesthetic appeal, security, and durability. Based on the experiences of the design team, several important lessons were learned that can both be applied to improving the secure bar soap dispenser product and to the broader field of product design for the developing world. These lessons include: Customers in the developing world may be more concerned with cost than durability, cultural appeal of a device is highly dependent on first -hand experience and can easily be misunderstood or misrepresented, the LDW method is an invaluable tool in identifying customer needs that may be overlooked due to cultural and socio-economic differences. The use of the LDW framework and the CNCRI method in an undergraduate design group was found to be useful, viable, and valuable to both the undergraduate student learning outcomes and the development of a product that can be deployed to its intended market. Further development of an end-to-end tool chain is needed to better integrate product development for the developing world into mainstream engineering curriculum.

Full text
Abstract:
The literature on WASH and school re-opening during the COVID-19 pandemic is dominated by guidelines with little in the way of recent evidence or lessons learned. Analysis of data from school re-openings at the end of 2020 suggests that with mitigation measures in place community infection rates should not be affected by children returning to school. Although children carry a lower risk of infection, they do have large numbers of contact in the school environment, so hygiene and distancing measures are important. The key guidelines for WASH in schools during the COVID-19 pandemic include: children and all school staff must be educated with regards to hand hygiene; hand hygiene stations must be provided at entrances and exits; hand washing must be frequent and requires sufficient water and soap; school buses should have hand hygiene measures in place; and the school environment must be disinfected daily. Environmental, or nudge-based, cues are recommended to support behaviour change in children based on pre-COVID-19 evidence. Examples include colourful footprints leading to a handwashing facility, images of eyes above handwashing facilities, embedding toys in soap, and putting pictures of germs on surfaces.

Full text
Abstract:
he Food Hygiene Rating Scheme (FHRS) is run in partnership between the Food Standards Agency and Local Authorities and provides information on the standards of hygiene found in food businesses at the time they are inspected. The scheme covers businesses providing food directly to consumers, such as restaurants, pubs, cafés, takeaways, hotels, hospitals, schools and other places people eat away from home, as well as supermarkets and other food shops. In Wales, the scheme also includes businesses that trade only with other businesses, for example, manufacturers. Food and You 2: Wave 2 is the first wave of data collection to include questions relating to the FHRS. The Food and You 2 survey has replaced the biennial Food and You survey (2010-2018), biannual Public Attitudes Tracker (2010-2019) and the Food Hygiene Rating Scheme (FHRS) Consumer Attitudes Tracker (2014-2019). We previously commissioned the FHRS Consumer Attitudes Tracker survey to monitor consumer awareness, attitudes towards and use of the scheme. The survey moved from a biannual basis to an annual basis from 2017 onwards. Due to differences in the question content, presentation and mode of response, direct comparisons should not be made between these earlier surveys and Food and You 2.

There is little available evidence on how schools implement the School Food Standards. To address this, the Department for Education and the Food Standards Agency with support from the Office of Health Improvement and Disparities commissioned this research to support the School Food Standards Compliance Pilot. The purpose of this pilot was to test if Food Safety Officers could carry out a School Food Standards check to identify potential non-compliance with the School Food Standards alongside food hygiene inspections. The pilot launched in September 2022 across 18 local authorities and the FSA has published two reports on the findings: School Food Standards Compliance Pilot: Discovery Research - this report focuses on the findings of the pre-pilot phase, the ‘Discovery Phase’, that ran from June to August 2022. School Food Standards Compliance Pilot: Feasibility Research - this report focuses on the findings of the second phase of the pilot known as ‘Feasibility Study Phase 1'. Research is currently underway to explore the feasibility of an updated pilot design known as ‘Feasibility Study Phase 2.’ This report will be published in Spring 2024.

Despite substantial progress over the last two decades, girls in many parts of the world experience worse educational outcomes than boys, particularly at the secondary and tertiary levels. The COVID-19 pandemic appears to have exacerbated this learning gap in many regions, making research on the relationship between girls’ education outcomes and education systems increasingly urgent. This rapid review explores the determinants of girls’ education outcomes in a specific group of Indo-Pacific countries. It examines the education system determinants of these outcomes such as government investment, teacher training, water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) infrastructure in schools, school-related gender-based violence, and indirect costs of education, drawing from pre-COVID-19 data. It also investigates societal determinants such as political factors, poverty rates, labour market participation trends, and child marriage rates. By attempting to explain differences in learning outcomes for girls, it also achieves a typology of countries in the region and suggests ideas for further research and FCDO programming.

Abstract:
This study was undertaken by Oxfam in three South Sudanse counties as part of the SIDA-funded project 'Building Resilience through Gender and Conflict-Sensitive Approaches to Education, Skills Development, and Sustainable Livelihoods'. Its purpose was to shed light on why so many girls drop out of school. The research revealed that women and girls often lack decision-making power over their lives. Early or forced marriage, the abduction of girls, perceptions that education delays marriage – and that educated girls risk not finding husbands – all contribute to dropout rates. Additional challenges include a lack of adequate hygiene and sanitation facilities in schools, the distances learners need to travel, insecurity caused by communal violence, floods, food insecurity, and a heavy household work burden. The Government of South Sudan has in place laws and policies to address these issues, but they remain largely on paper and enforcement mechanisms are weak. The report analyses each of these factors in turn and presents recommendations for how the SIDA project can begin to address them in its future programming.

Abstract:
The Promotion and Practice Handwashing Kit (PPHWK), a robust, user-friendly handwashing station, and Mum’s Magic Hands (MMH), a creative hygiene promotion strategy, were evaluated in a clustered randomized controlled trial in Kyaka II refugee settlement in Uganda. The trial evaluated whether their provision increased handwashing with soap practice among residents, with a focus on three community intervention arms and two school-based intervention arms. The findings outlined in this report suggest that exposure to both the PPHWK and MMH increased hygiene knowledge and handwashing behaviour with soap, and improved health outcomes. Intervention households also preferred the PPHWK over existing handwashing stations, typically a basic bucket with a tap.

Abstract:
This guidance outlines the steps for designing and implementing ethnographic research which is led by citizens. It explains what citizen ethnography is and then sets out what should be considered throughout the process of working with networks of citizen researchers, from recruitment, training and supporting them to collect and analyse ethnographic data, and how to transform the insights they gain to support preparedness and responses for disease outbreaks. It also provides suggestions for further resources to support the process. The guidance is for social scientists who would like to integrate citizen-led ethnographic approaches into their research, and for practitioners working on community engagement or other outbreak responses, who seek to use social science insights in their operations. It was written for SSHAP by Luisa Enria (London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine). It is the responsibility of SSHAP.

Abstract:
Este documento de orientación describe los pasos que deben seguirse para diseñar y una investigación etnográfica dirigida por los ciudadanos. Se explica qué es la etnografía ciudadana y se indica qué debe tenerse en cuenta a lo largo del proceso de trabajo con redes de investigadores ciudadanos, desde su reclutamiento, capacitación y apoyo para la recogida y el análisis de datos etnográficos, hasta como transformar los conocimientos que se obtienen para apoyar la preparación y las respuestas a los brotes de enfermedades. El documento también ofrece sugerencias sobre otros recursos para apoyar el proceso. Las recomendaciones están dirigidas a los científicos sociales que deseen integrar a sus investigaciones un enfoque etnográfico dirigido por los ciudadanos, y a aquellos profesionales abocados a tareas de participación comunitaria u otras respuestas a brotes de enfermedades que busquen sumar la perspectiva de las ciencias sociales a sus operaciones.

Abstract:
Cette orientation décrit les étapes de conception et de mise en œuvre d’une recherche ethnographique dirigée par les citoyens. Elle explique ce qu’est l’ethnographie citoyenne et définit ensuite ce qui doit être considéré tout au long du processus de travail avec les réseaux de chercheurs citoyens, du recrutement, de la formation et du soutien à la collecte et à l'analyse de données ethnographiques, et comment transformer les connaissances qu'ils acquièrent pour soutenir la préparation et les interventions en cas d'épidémie. Il fournit également des suggestions de ressources supplémentaires pour soutenir le processus. L'orientation s’adressent aux spécialistes en sciences sociales qui souhaitent intégrer les approches ethnographiques dirigées par les citoyens dans leurs recherches, ainsi qu'aux praticiens qui travaillent sur l'engagement communautaire ou sur d'autres réponses aux épidémies, qui cherchent à utiliser les connaissances des sciences sociales dans leurs opérations. L'orientation a été rédigée pour la SSHAP par Luisa Enria (London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine). La SSHAP en assume la responsabilité.
