Interviewer instructions
In HW2, you will observe whether there is water available at the place used for handwashing. If there is a tap or pump at the specific place for handwashing, open the tap or operate the pump to see if water is coming out. If there is a bucket, basin or other type of water container, examine to see whether water is present in the container. If you learn that the water is temporarily not available at the specific place for handwashing, code it as water not available ('2') but take a note of this at the end of the questionnaire.
