Students’ field visits should cut across the board

The Environmental Health students at the Kigali Health Institute (KHI) have started a forty-day tour of various establishments in urban areas, including abattoirs, health facilities and hotels, to familiarise themselves with the sanitation and hygiene situation in public areas. Rwanda has made impressive strides in the area of sanitation and hygiene over the years, which have seen the country surpass, by eight percent, the MDG target on sanitation, and serving as an example for many developing countries.
