The effects of household water, sanitation, and hygiene on early childhood education enrollment: evidence from the 2022 Bangladesh demographic and health survey
Our findings highlight the significance of household access to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) facilities in early childhood education enrollment in Bangladesh. To advance progress toward SDGs 4 (quality education) and 6 (clean water and sanitation), policymakers should prioritize well-established WASH facilities, maternal education programs, and region-specific strategies.
