Description
-
Global Handwashing Day promotes the crucial role of handwashing with soap in preventing diseases and saving lives, particularly related to food hygiene and nutrition. The 2018 theme, “Clean hands - A recipe for health,” highlights how proper handwashing before cooking, eating, and feeding can reduce foodborne illnesses, especially in children under five. Handwashing is linked to improved nutrition outcomes by decreasing diarrhea-related diseases, which hinder nutrient absorption. Effective hygiene practices can significantly lower the risk of malnutrition and support child growth. Overall, integrating handwashing into daily routines and community practices is essential for enhancing health and well-being.
