Global Handwashing Day is a day to support a global and local culture of handwashing with soap. Shine a
spotlight on the state of handwashing in each country and raise awareness about the benefits of handwashing
with soap since 2008, “Global Handwashing Day” has been celebrated annually on October 15 not
only nationwide but worldwide. The Global Public-Private Partnership for Handwashing with soap encourages
school children, teachers and families to get involved with this activity
Global Handwashing Day is designed to support a global and local culture of handwashing
with soap, shine spotlight on the state of handwashing in each country and raise awareness about
the benefits of handwashing with soap. The 2023 Global Handwashing Day theme is “Clean hands
are within reach” underscores the importance of accessibility to hand hygiene facilities including
soap and water in all settings such as home, schools, health care facilities, workplaces and other
community settings. Keeping hands clean through improved hand hygiene which is one of the
most important steps we can take to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to others.
Many sickness and conditions are spread by not washing hands with soap and clean, running
water. If clean, running water is not accessible, as is common in many parts of the world, use
soap and available water.
Thru this event, pupils were reminded how important it is to keep our hands free from dirt.
Teachers always do their part in the realization of this as it became a habit. For we are informed
that a mind can forget but when it became a habit, an educated heart can keep the teaching and
apply it in a real sense. It is a once-a-year opportunity to make a big splash in support of
handwashing with soap, but the important work of hand hygiene promotion should not end after
October 15. If Global Handwashing Day celebrants advocate for handwashing with soap every
day, we can make significant progress in moving toward the goal of increasing hand hygiene
programs, investment and behavior. Whether you are supporting your child’s school with WASH
improvements, such as developing a group handwashing station, or demonstrating good hand
hygiene practices to change your community’s social norms around handwashing, efforts must
continue beyond October 15 to achieve hand hygiene for all.
We, teachers appreciated the conduct of this activity. It won’t just end on a one-day event,
but we will observe handwashing period everyday as part of our everyday routine.
