Oct. 15 - 1st. Global Handwashing Day
The first-ever Global Handwashing Day takes place today Wednesday, October 15, 2008. The UN General Assembly has designated 2008 the International Year of Sanitation, and Global Handwashing Day will echo and reinforce its call for improved hygiene practices.
The campaign is dedicated to raising awareness of handwashing with soap as a key approach to disease prevention.
Global Handwashing Day will be the centerpiece of a week of activities that will mobilize millions of people in more than 20 countries across five continents to wash their hands with soap.
