Healthy Villages: A guide for communities and community health workers

by

Authors: Guy Howard, Water, Engineering and Development Centre, Loughborough University, Loughborough, England

This guide outlines the type of information and approaches that Healthy Villages managers could provide to their communities; it can be used as the basis for developing material that is specific to regions or to entire countries. Healthy Villages deals with achieving good health through: water, excreta disposal, drainage, solid waste management, housing quality, hygiene, providing health care, and establishing committees for implementing Healthy Villages Initiatives.
