a) Most persistent Challenged in Implementing WASH Initiatives
The most persistent challenges have been limited resources for facility maintenance, inconsistent water supply, and inconsistent hygiene practices among learners. These issues often lead to broken taps, shortage of soap, unclean toilets, and difficult sustaining daily routines. Community involvement is also sometimes irregular, which affects long-term upkeep. Together, these challenges make it difficult to maintain strong and consistent WASH standards.
b) Locally viable solutions include using water storage tanks and tippy taps, maintaining and repairing toilets with community support, and promoting hygiene education through clubs, peer sessions, and parent involvement.
