NARRATIVE REPORT:
Global Handwashing Day is a day to support 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 during
the month of October not only nationwide but worldwide.

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.

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 18. If Global
Handwashing Day celebrants advocate for handwashing with soap everyday, 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 18 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.
