Hand Washing Day

  Today, October 15 2021, is Global Handwashing Day. We all want to stay clean and healthy. But around the world, poor hygiene behaviour is making people sick, keeping children out of school, and stopping adults from working. Investing in hygiene is good value for money, but in many countries, it is undervalued and underfunded. Good hygiene habits, like handwashing with soap, food hygiene, using a decent toilet and drinking clean water, keep people clean and healthy. Children can go to school, mothers can give birth safely, and young women can have their periods with dignity.
