To evaluate a short participatory school-based educational intervention for Opisthorchis viverrini (OV) prevention among primary and lower-secondary school students in southern Lao PDR by examining short-term changes in OV-related knowledge and attitudes, students' perceptions of a participatory skit-based activity, and practical challenges in implementing the intervention.
Others
Feasibility and short-term educational effects
Changes in Opisthorchis viverrini related knowledge and attitudes measured using self administered questionnaires immediately before and after each educational training session.OV related knowledge was assessed using true or false items covering transmission, prevention, the transmission cycle, animal reservoirs, common misconceptions, deworming, severe disease, and risks associated with early initiation of raw fish consumption. Attitudes and perceptions related to OV prevention were assessed using five point Likert scale items.
Key secondary outcomes
Perceived importance of OV prevention education.
Willingness to engage in OV prevention education.
Perceived adequacy of knowledge for providing OV prevention education.
Confidence in providing OV prevention education.
Students' perceptions of the skit-based activity, including their perceived ability to create an OV prevention skit, perceived effectiveness of skits for prevention education, contribution to skit development, and enjoyment of the activity.
Practical implementation challenges observed during the participatory skit-development activities.

| Behavior,custom |
Participants received a two session school based educational intervention on Opisthorchis viverrini (OV) prevention. Each session lasted approximately 3 hours. During the first session, district education and health staff provided basic information about OV, including routes of transmission, symptoms, and preventive measures. During the second session, students participated in a group based activity to develop short skits communicating key messages about OV prevention. Before developing the skits, facilitators demonstrated a model skit and reviewed core OV prevention messages. Students then developed a scenario, assigned roles, rehearsed their performance, and presented the skits to other participants. Teachers from the participating schools and staff from district health or education offices served as facilitators.
