Abstract

This study evaluates the impact of environmental sanitation programs on the occurrence of diarrhea among toddlers in Seimalingkar B Village. Recognizing the crucial link between sanitation and children's health, the research analyzes environmental factors such as water quality and sanitation conditions to identify risks contributing to diarrhea. Through statistical analysis and comparison with health standards, the study recommends improvements in water filtration systems, sanitation facilities, and hygiene practices. The findings underscore the urgency of addressing environmental factors to reduce diarrhea cases and enhance community health.
