What is CBEHPP
Community
Based
Environmental
Health
Promotion Program uses a
Community Health Clubs
(CHC) Approach/Strategy to
reach all communities and
empower them to identify
their
personal,
domestic
hygiene,
nutrition
and
environmental health related
problems (including drinking
water, appropriate utilization
of latrines, handwashing,
food safety etc.)

SPECIFIC STRATEGIES
The Government of Rwanda launched CBEHPP in
December 2009 with an objective of reducing
significantly by 2017 the debilitating national disease
burden (Diarrhea, Intestinal Parasites and Respiratory
infections) and therefore contributing to poverty
reduction through sustainable hygiene behaviour change
through the following strategic interventions.
1. Establishment of Community Hygiene Clubs (CHCs) in all villages
2. Increase use of hygienic latrines in homes, schools and health
facilities
3. Increase hand washing with soap at critical times in homes, schools
and health facilities
3
SPECIFIC STRATEGIES
3. Increase drinking of safe water in homes, schools and
health facilities
5. Achieve Zero Open Defecation in all villages through
construction and use of improved toilets.
6. Improve safe disposal of children’s faeces in all
households
7. Increase households with bath shelters, rubbish pits,
pot-drying racks and clean yards
4
CBEHPP APPROACH
• Aims to reach all 15,000 villages in Rwanda
• Establish a Community Hygiene Club (CHC) in every village
• All households in each village will be CHC members
• One member represents the household in a Club session
•CHC Members required to meet every week for 2 hoursInformed
decision making through good information
• Creating a common unity/goal through activities
• Action oriented with weekly hygiene improvements
(e.g. making existing toilets hygienic).

CONCLUSION
We are inviting all our partners to actively support the
programme (CBEHPP). While the Village Social Affairs
and Environmental Health Officers are already
available, their capacity to achieve positive results
through CHCs requires technical support and
motivation.
Appropriate training materials and financial resources
for this noble cause are critical towards achieving
effective implementation.
