Description

Many studies have confirmed through repeating an action for 66 days you can establish a habit-forming behaviour. With the use of technology, rewards and gamification, Pirrawayingi along with the Australian Catholic University and Professor Mikah Goldberg from The University of Sydney University will undertake a pilot in the remote community of Pirlangimpi on the Tiwi Islands to look at creating habitual hygiene behaviour in school children.
