KAP surveys in the context of WASH projects. Draft Report, October 2009.

Abstract

This is the response to a DEWPoint helpdesk enquiry about the use of Knowledge, Attitude and Practice (KAP) surveys in WASH projects. It discusses: the KAP approach and how it is translated into surveys; the common context in WASH programmes in developing countries; the purpose of baseline surveys and impact assessment in WASH programmes; examples of where and how KAP surveys are used in WASH programmes, issues raised in the use of KAP surveys on WASH projects. Based on the rapid literature review and discussions, a number of concluding points are offered.

This report was produced by DEW Point, a Resource Centre for Environment, Water and Sanitation, that was funded by DFID and managed by a consortium of companies led by Harewelle International Limited. The Resource Centre closed in 2012.
