In this Study Session, you have learned that:

• A framework approach helps to identify behavioural determinants that can facilitate or prevent progress in improving health including hygiene and sanitation.
• One such framework is FOAM, which identifies the target groups and people who can influence them as well as the opportunity, ability and motivation determinants of a behaviour.
• Tools that can be used to help build the content of a FOAM framework include participation, situation and barrier analysis.
• Gender has a strong influence on hygiene and sanitation-related behaviour.
