Global Handwashing Day underscores health benefits of clean hands
Each year, Global Handwashing Day emphasizes how consistently washing hands with soap can serve as a lifeline to our wellbeing.
This year’s theme, “Clean hands – a recipe for health,” accentuates the important link between handwashing and food. Washing hands with soap and water before cooking, eating or feeding others is essential for keeping food clean and safe, preventing diseases and helping children grow up healthy and strong.
