  5. Vision 21: A Shared Vision for Hygiene, Sanitation and Water Supply and A Framework for Action • Experience has shown that clean water alone leads only to minor health improvements. The essential factor is sound hygiene behaviour i.e. personal hygiene recognized as a core issue in its own right, with adequate sanitation and clean water as supporting components. While each of the three components alone has some health benefits, it is their combined effect which is far greater. Hygiene behaviour is virtually impossible without a source of water and safe means of disposal human and other wastes.
