Getting the Basics Right - the Role of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene in Maternal and Reproductive Health: A Conceptual Framework

This paper by Campbell et al. (2014), published in Tropical Medicine and Internation Health, explores linkages between WASH and maternal and perinatal health via a conceptual approach and a scoping review. Although acknowledging that major gaps exist, the authors conclude that existing evidence strongly suggests that poor WASH influences maternal and reproductive health outcomes.
