TO-WASH YEAR IN REVIEW: THE ADOPT-A-SCHOOL PIONEER PROJECT 🩵🩵
In August, the TO-WaSH Adopt-A-School Pioneer Project was implemented across three Medical Students’ Associations: UMSA, KASUMSA, and IFUMSA. Despite limited resources, the project was successfully executed, demonstrating the strength of planning, collaboration, and student-led commitment.
At UMSA, the project followed a structured three-phase approach: initial stakeholder engagement, a theoretical health education phase, and a concluding practical phase. The intervention was reinforced with the donation of a handwashing station, including a bucket with a tap and soap, ensuring that learning translated into everyday practice.
KASUMSA adopted a continuity-focused model through a series of visits, allowing for sustained engagement with students. The final visit culminated in an Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) outreach, linking hygiene practices to the wider public health challenge of AMR.
Overall, the project recorded strong participation from students and school authorities and achieved its core objectives.
The success of the Pioneer Project highlights the impact of focused WaSH interventions and sets a strong foundation for future expansion.
