Description
Summary:The overall purpose of the Impact Evaluation is to provide decision makers with a body of rigorous evidence on the effects of the hand washing and sanitation projects at scale on a set of relevant outcomes. It also aims to generate robust evidence on a cross-country basis, understanding how effects vary according to each country's programmatic and geographic contexts, and generate knowledge of relevant impacts such as child cognitive development, child growth (anthropometric) measures, anemia, acute lower respiratory disease, and productivity of mother's time, among many others. The studies will provide a better understanding of at-scale sanitation and hygiene interventions. The improved evidence will support development of large-scale policies and programs, and will inform donors and policy makers on the effectiveness and potential of the Global Scaling Up projects as massive interventions to meet global needs.
