The UNICEF project aims to reduce the burden of sanitation-related diseases and improve maternal, newborn and child health (MNCH) in Ghana’s Northern Region. The project reaches 500,000 beneficiaries including 36,000 school children and 150,000 mothers; 120 schools and 60 health centers in 80 small towns.
