 Abstract

Humans are travelling, and they may need a toilet on the go.
However, they try to avoid this toilet because they perceive it as being dirty.
This research project improved the Dutch train toilet's hygiene by reducing physical, mental, and social distances between toilet, dirt, and train travellers.
