2007 E-conference 'Measuring Behavioral Outcomes for HWTS Systems'

Measuring the impact of efforts to promote household water treatment and storage practices will help determine if behavior change programs are effective and worthy of continuous financial support by the development community in general, including governments, donors and the private sector (both nonprofit and commercial). From January 22-31, the Hygiene Improvement Project sought the input from key specialists in the field of water treatment and storage as well as behavior change to assist them in developing indicators to effectively measure behaviors associated with household water treatment and storage.
