As part of the COVID-19 response, BRAC has built 1000 public handwashing stations in several hundred villages in 20 sub-districts of Bangladesh. The investigators investigate the effects of two sets of behavioural interventions on use of the handwashing stations, compared to no additional interventions. The first set comprises passive nudges installed on and around the handwashing station, aimed at attracting people to the station. The second set comprises actively delivered higher-intensity interventions, including free soap offered as an incentive for using the handwashing station and a community board used to display social proof. This set of interventions aims to increase motivation to use the station.
Evidence-based clinical practices (EBCPs) are often not widely adopted, despite extensive efforts to influence individual practitioners to use them. The aim of the project is to work with Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISN) 1, 10, and 23 and their medical centers to create and test organizations that facilitate the use of EBCPs. The research objectives are to: Test the effectiveness of the proposed organizational model in comparison with a more limited data-feedback strategy in improving system use of a selected EBCP; Identify and analyze organizational factors that affect model implementation; Test the feasibility of intervention activities to introduce and support the model.
