Summary

This study surveyed nearly 1,000 students in Pemba, Zanzibar, to see how much they know about schistosomiasis (a parasitic disease) and how they feel about it. Researchers tested a health education program led by community volunteers to see if it improves students' knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors. The goal is to find a simple way to teach kids in affected areas how to protect themselves.
