Of the 83 schools included in the baseline, 86% had a designated place to wash hands. Improving access to hand washing materials at the common hand washing place, especially among households in the mountain region is critical. There is a need for improvement in knowledge of hand washing before eating and before feeding a child, and the use of soap to wash hands at those times.
