| dc.description.abstract | For fostering a healthy and favorable environment inside educational institutions, adequate
sanitary facilities must be provided. This study's objective was to evaluate the variables that affect
how frequently the College of Engineering, Design, Art, and Technology's (CEDAT) sanitation
facilities are used. Understanding these elements took into account the development of efficient
methods to enhance and encourage proper use of sanitation facilities, assuring the health and
hygiene of the college community.
A mixed-methods strategy was used in this research to collect both qualitative and quantitative
data. Information from previous literature was analyzed to study different factors affecting the use
of sanitary facilities taking into consideration the individual attitudes, awareness, accessibility,
tidiness, upkeep, and sociocultural influences associated with use of sanitary facilities. A
representative sample of students was given the survey questionnaire, and in-depth interviews was
used to glean further information about their perspectives and experiences with the sanitary
facilities at the college. In order to ascertain the level of usage and the level of contamination of
the facilities, hourly traffic counting was done as well as swab surface laboratory experimental
work for quantities of various contaminants present. The quantitative findings were complemented
by qualitative analysis, allowing for a comprehensive understanding of the complex dynamics that
impact sanitation facility usage within CEDAT.
Overall, the goal of this study was to provide an insight into the complex elements that affect the
College of Engineering, Design, Art, and Technology's use of sanitary facilities. This report
provides findings that will serve as the basis for focused initiatives and strategies aimed at
developing a sustainable and inclusive sanitation infrastructure that satisfies the demands of all
students. | en_US |
