Abstract

Solar water disinfection (SODIS) is a simple method designed to treat microbiologically contaminated drinking water at the household level. This study focused on the effective promotion of the SODIS method using various strategies. In a longitudinal field study, we compared 2 interpersonal strategies (promoters and opinion leaders) and a centralized strategy (health fair) with a control group. Indicators of effectiveness were SODIS knowledge, SODIS adoption rate, and potential reach. The results suggest that use of promoters is the most successful strategy in terms of reaching people and changing their behavior toward SODIS use. The opinion leaders-although less effective-show some potential to stimulate communication among people about SODIS. Only the health fair did not have a big impact on behavior. Further discussion includes the costs of the various promotional activities, limitations, and recommendations for future projects.

摘要

太阳能水消毒（SODIS）是一种旨在对家庭层面受微生物污染的饮用水进行处理的简单方法。本研究重点关注使用各种策略有效推广 SODIS 方法。在一项纵向实地研究中，我们将 2 种人际策略（推广者和意见领袖）与集中策略（健康博览会）与对照组进行了比较。有效性指标是 SODIS 知识、SODIS 采用率和潜在覆盖率。结果表明，就接触人群和改变他们对 SODIS 使用的行为而言，使用推广者是最成功的策略。意见领袖虽然效果稍差，但显示出在激发人们就 SODIS 进行交流方面的一些潜力。只有健康博览会对行为没有产生重大影响。进一步的讨论包括各种推广活动的成本、局限性以及对未来项目的建议。
