The aim was to improve sanitary conditions, by setting up low cost sanitation infrastructure and promoting behavioural changes through hygiene education for the eradication of dracunculiasis. In working towards the promotion of integrated community based activities, to contribute more efficiently to the reduction of child mortality and morbidity due to diarrhoeal diseases and to poor nutrition, the programme will focus on geographic and intersectorial convergence of integrated and decentralised health and nutrition activities with those of water, hygiene and sanitation.
