Re: WHO/USAID/UNICEF - document, called Improving Nutrition Outcomes With Better Water, Sanitation and Hygiene: Practical Solutions for Policies and Progr

There is another interesting publication: Integrating Water, Sanitation and Hygiene into Nutrition Programming.

More than 90 percent of deaths from diarrheal illnesses in young children are attributed to unsafe or inadequate water, sanitation, and hygiene practices. Using simple hygiene practices and having access to safe water and adequate sanitation this could greatly reduce under 5 deaths and improve child nutrition (UNICEF).

The publication reviews water treatment methods, household water treatment, hygiene principles and sanitation principles. The publication is available at:
