Sanitation and hygiene is a major issue that we face in schools today. Access to clean water, sanitation, and hygiene is essential for children in schools, particularly for girls as well as children with disabilities. Contaminated water, poor sanitation or unhealthy hygiene behaviors increases the risk of contracting diarrhoea and other diseases, making it more difficult for children to stay in school and become empowered through education. Sanitation and hygiene is a major issue that we face in schools today.
This is the reason that the students of 8B from APL global school, Chennai decided to take up the issue of sanitation in schools and how it increasingly adds to the stress levels of the students.
There are few thoughts that come to your mind when you think of the driving question:
- How is sanitation related to stress levels?
- Why do we need to publicly talk about this issue?
- Is it even a problem because there are many other important issues to deal with?
