Swachh Bharat: Swachh Vidyalaya is the national campaign driving ‘Clean India: Clean Schools’. A key feature of
the campaign is to ensure that every school in India has a set of functioning and well maintained water, sanitation
and hygiene facilities. Water, sanitation and hygiene in schools refers to a combination of technical and human
development components that are necessary to produce a healthy school environment and to develop or support
appropriate health and hygiene behaviours. The technical components include drinking water, handwashing,
toilet and soap facilities in the school compound for use by children and teachers. The human development
components are the activities that promote conditions within the school and the practices of children that help to
prevent water, hygiene and sanitation related diseases.
