Description
Frida Okeyo, Edna Nyangechi, and Bernard Guyah ask whether picture charts can help caregivers in Kenya stop diarrhea in young children, in a study from 2025. The work took place in Nyalenda, a low-income urban area. Diarrhea still sickens and kills many children under five, even with vaccines and hygiene drives in place.
The team spoke at length with 14 caregivers and four health staff. Caregivers knew much about the illness, but lack of soap, safe water, and good toilets held them back. None had seen picture charts before, yet all liked the idea. They asked for charts on hand washing, water care, food hygiene, and waste, in three local languages.
