Choose handwashing, choose health!

The practice of handwashing with soap tops the international hygiene agenda on October 15, with the celebration of Global Handwashing Day (GHWD). Since its inception in 2008 – which was designated as the International Year of Sanitation by the UN General Assembly – Global Handwashing Day has been echoing and reinforcing the call for improved hygiene practices worldwide.

Since 2009, in Viet Nam, GHWD has come to the agenda for advocacy on hygiene and other sanitation issues by the Government of Viet Nam (MOH, MARD, MOET, Women’s Union, etc.), international donors and private sector. A numbers of events have been organized around 15 October at national and provincial levels with participation from national policy makers, provincial leaders, members of national and international organizations and community. Through these events, messages on the health benefit from hand washing with soap have been disseminated through a variety of mass media, and direct communication channels.
