| dc.description.abstract | A large-scale multi-disciplinary campaign which aimed at improving the agricultural, educational and health conditions of the general population of Sellale awraja was conducted in May 1981 , during ng which , muketuri , the present study area was alleged to have achieved the maximum results by providing; pit latrine facility to each and every household residing i n the town .An evaluative study on the impact of proper human waste disposal on the health status of children below, 5 years of age was conducted from July 14 - 21, 1986, which is five years after the mass introduction of pit latrines as an intervention into muketuri town. Assessment was also made on how residents of the town have formed the habit t of using the facility after it was made available for them. Because of lack of base line data, a similar community unaffected by the 1981 campaign, but comparable in respect to pertinent socio- demograrhic characteristics, as chosen as a control .Intestinal parasitism, diarrheal illnesses, anthropometric measurements, infant and child death were chosen to measure health improvements that might have resulted from the intervention. | en_US |
