Outline of Final Research Achievements

This research aimed to clarify characteristics and present situation of the health and environmental activities in schools based on Child to Child (CTC) approach, as well as factors which promote or hinder CTC activities and potential of CTC activities for empowering children and teachers, in Kenya and Bangladesh. As a result of the study, teachers and governors in both countries recognized that the CTC activities have contributed to improving hygienic and environmental situation in schools and to developing children’s abilities such as creativity, social skills and leadership. As challenges of the CTC activities, both countries need to develop guidelines which help to promote CTC activities. In addition, it is necessary for CTC activities in both countries to ensure enough time for activities, to get cooperation from more teachers and community members, to get funds for activities, and to build related facilities such as toilet and water facilities in schools.
