Declarations
:
: The SchistoBreak study protocol was waived by the ethics committee in Switzerland (Ethikkommission Nordwest- und Zentralschweiz; EKNZ) on 23 October 2019 (Req-2019-00951). It subsequently received annual ethical approval by the Zanzibar Health Research Institute (ZAHRI). The first approval was given on 13 December 2019 (ZAHREC/03/PR/December/2019/12), and the latest approval was given on 31 March 2023 (ZAHREC/04/AMEND/MARCH/2023/03). The study was registered prospectively at ISRCTN (ISCRCTN91431493). At the beginning of each annual intervention period, the leaders of the IUs (shehas) were invited to meetings at the PHL-IdC. In the meetings, updates on the SchistoBreak study results were presented. Moreover, challenges of surveys and interventions were discussed and concerns addressed, and the shehas were invited to support the project by announcing the forthcoming activities in their communities.
