sector to institutionalize evidence based preventive measures like hand-washing with soap and tooth-brushing as part of daily routines in public
elementary schools. It also includes the improvement of water and sanitation
facilities, specifically group hand-washing stations and thus support schools to become health-promoting,
learning, and living environments. The Program has recently entered its
