One cannot ignore the fact that hand
washing is the simplest, most affordable and effective way of keeping
the virus away. The theme of Global Hand washing Day 2020 is 'Hand
Hygiene for all'. The theme is primarily to urge people across society
to achieve universal hand hygiene. Keeping this objective, Vimukti
organized Global Hand washing day on 15th of October, 2020 in four
villages of our working area. The current Covid-19 pandemic has
highlighted the critical role hand hygiene plays in disease
transmission. It reminds us of the importance of the simple yet most
effective intervention to stop the spread of any disease- hand washing
with soap- and the need to take immediate action on hand hygiene across
all public and private settings to respond and control the COVID-19
pandemic. Therefore, through this awareness program Vimukti urges to all
the children and village communities, a global culture of hand hygiene
must be fostered and made the mainstay in public health interventions
beyond the pandemic. Nearly one hundred and seven children and village
community stakeholders, benefited from this mass awareness program.
