This article describes and evaluates an environmental health education project, focusing on water and sanitation issues, which was carried out in two Egyptian villages in the Nile delta. The study is multifaceted as it involves various hygiene education strategies carried out by health unit staff, teachers, graduate volunteers and local village leaders who deliver simple environmental health messages in a variety of different settings. The project is also multifaceted in that it looks at health education in relation to specific health interventions, in this case in water and sanitation; it identifies the full context of relevant local behavior; and it collaborates with local people, especially women, in the design and implementation of the program. Based on the experience gained during this project, a broad based model for health education is presented.
本文描述并评估了一个以水和卫生问题为重点的环境卫生教育项目，该项目在尼罗河三角洲的两个埃及村庄开展。这项研究具有多方面性，因为它涉及卫生单位工作人员、教师、研究生志愿者和当地村长开展的各种卫生教育策略，他们在各种不同环境中传递简单的环境卫生信息。该项目的多方面性还体现在，它着眼于与特定卫生干预措施相关的健康教育，在本案例中是水和卫生方面；它确定了相关当地行为的完整背景；并且它在项目设计和实施过程中与当地居民，尤其是妇女进行合作。基于该项目获得的经验，本文提出了一个基础广泛的健康教育模式。
